In manufacturing, no. A yield greater than 100% would mean that you put a certain amount of

materials into the front end of the assembly line, and you got more operational, salable units

off the back end than the materials were intended to comprise.

In banking and investing, you have to hope the yield is more than 100% ... that your investment

is worth more at the end of the year than it was when you invested it.
