My now passed girl was pure yorkie and AKC registered she weighed in at 17 pounds, passed at 17 years old. We have a member whose yorkie weighs 18 pounds, there was another member his yorkie weighed 20 pounds.
My adopted boy weighs 12 pounds.
A reputable breeder breeds for "standard Size" 5 to 7 pounds. That is not to say a reputable breeder could not have a larger or smaller then standard in a litter.
Anyone that breeds for larger or tiny yorkies is not a reputable breeder.
