Nice graph of that can be found here, with some tips of making it go better: "Cost of Modifications. Do it early in the design cycle!" http://www.softwaresafety.net/ Hardware people might find the links to application notes of interest as well.

They don't have to pay to keep my products in the manufacturing pipe line. Like Atmel killing several AVR's just so they could go to 0.35 microns.
