Appraisal costs are expenses tied to inspecting and testing materials, parts, and products to ensure they meet quality standards. These costs are directly related to the assessment of product quality after it has been manufactured or the service has been provided, unlike prevention costs which aim to prevent defects before they happen, or internal and external failure costs, which are associated with defects that occur before or after delivery to the customer, respectively.
