We can divide location costs into two categories,tangible and intangible.Tangible costs are thosecosts that are readily identifiable and precisely measured.They include utilities,labor,material,taxes,depreciation,and other costs that the accounting department and management can identify.In addi-tion,such costs as transportation of raw materials,transportation of finished goods,and site constrnc.tion are all factored into the overall cost of a location.Government incentives.as we see in the OM JnAction box“How Big Incentives Won Alabama the Auto Industry”certainly affect a location’s cost.Intangible costs are less easily quantified.They include quality of education,public transporta-tion facilities,community attitudes toward the industry and the company,and quality and attitude ofprospective employees.They also include quality.of-life variables,such as climate and sportsteams,that may influence personnel recruiting.Ethical lssues Location decisions based on costs alone may create ethical situations such as theUnited Airlines case in Indianapolis(see the“Ethical Dilemma”box at the end of this chapter).United accepted$320 million in incentives to open a facility in that location,only to renege adecade later,leaving residents and government holding the bag.

Worker attitudes may also differ from country to country,region to region,and small town to city.Worker views regarding turnover,unions,and absenteeism are all relevant factors.In turn,these atti.tudes can affect a company's decision whether to make offers to current workers if the firm relocatesto a new location.The case study at the end of this chapter.“Southern Recreational VehicleCompany,'’describes a St.Louis firm that actively chose not to relocate any of its workers when ilmoved to Mississippi.
One of the greatest challenges in a global operations decision is dealing with another country'sculture.Cultural variations in punctuality by employees and suppliers make a marked difference inproduction and delivery schedules.Bribery likewise creat
