Which of the following is also known as failure costs?

A>Cost of poor quality
B>Internal costs
C>Prevention costs
D>Cost of defects

I need to know the explanation of the answer. The ans as per one of the education provider is : A

My question is why it is not D? Is Defect not a failure? why will the cost of defect will not come under failure cost? Defect will require Rework and that is under failure costs.

IMPOSSIBLE Itself says I M POSSIBLE
