    "In order to reduce costs, we should close some of our existing small assembly plants and
    build a large central plant. Grandview would be an ideal location for this new plant. First, of the
    locations that we have considered, Grandview has the largest adult population, so that we will
    be able to staff our plant quickly and easily. Second, since the average wage earned by
    workers in Grandview is less than that in the other locations, we should be able to keep
    production costs low. Last, as an inducement for us to build there, Grandview's town council
    has offered to allow us to operate for the first three years without paying city taxes."
    In this memo the president of Viva-Tech, a high-tech medical equipment firm, recom mends
    163
    closing its small assembly plants and centralizing its operations at one location--in the city of
    Grandview. To support this recommendation the president points out certain attractive
    demographic features, as well as the town's willingness to allow Viva-Tech to operate there
    without paying property taxes for the first three years. However, careful scrutiny of the
    evidence reveals that it provides little credible support for the president's recommendation.
    To begin with, the fact that Grandview's adult population is larger than that of any other
    locale under consideration is scant evidence in itself that Grandview would be the best location
    for Viva-Tech. Perhaps Grandview's adult residents are not skilled to work in the medical
    equipment industry. Or perhaps a large portion of its residents are retired. Or perhaps virtually
    all of its residents are already employed in jobs that they would be unwilling or unable to leave
    to work at Viva-Tech. Without considering and eliminating these and other possible reasons
    why Viva-Tech might have difficulty finding enough suitable employees in Grandview, the
    president cannot rely on the fact that Grandview has a large adult population to bolster the
    recommendation.
    Furthermore, the fact that the earnings of the average Grandview worker are comparatively
    low does not necessarily mean that Viva-Tech could minimize labor costs by employing
    Grandview residents, as the president suggests. It is entirely possible that this low average
    wage is attributable to a high percentage of jobs requiring low-level skills. This scenario would
    be particularly likely if a large portion of Grandview's workers are teenagers and college
    students. In fact, the low average wage in Grandview is further evidence that Grandview
    residents do not possess the sorts of high-tech skills that would command a higher wage and
    which Viva-Tech might require among its work force. 感謝您閱讀《GRE作文范文大全(101) 》一文,出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)(liuxue86.com)編輯部希望本文能幫助到您。
