According to the article, quality used to mean that a product was well-made and high-priced. Nowadays, quality has a different meaning for business people. It means a product is reliable and does not have things wrong with it. In 1980, a group of analysts visited Rolls Royce. They asked many questions about finance, but few about quality. It is not surprising that Rolls Royce went bankrupt; they sold their cars too cheaply in their markets.

The old-style idea of quality became popular with business people because it emphasised the importance of good production methods. The Japanese learned a lot from Edward Deming. Their products sell well in western markets because they are low-priced. The US company, McDonald’s, sells products which are cheap and excellent value for money. According to the writer of the article, McDonald’s hamburgers are the best in the world.
