LocalCo has customers n most U.S states. It does not employ a traditional sales force. Instead, it sells its products exclusively through internet solicitations and its elaborate website.

LocalCo has the product lines: smartphone accessories, which it manufactures in Alabama, and various sports-themed apparel items, all of which are produces in California. LocalCo has been quite profitable in the past, and it holds a sizable investment portfolio made up chiefly of U.S. Treasury securities. Banking, payroll, and other administrative operations are located in rural New York State, where the entity is incorporated. LocalCo's rank-and-file employees receive compensation packages that are below the national median, but its top 10 executives are highly paid.in a effort to "go green," LocalCo wants to hold down its costs for shipping raw materials to its manufacturing facilities and for sending its sold goods to customers. As a result, it is considering the construction of a sizable new multifunction building. Ideally, the new facility would have access to both interstate highways and a reliable airport with excess capacity for freight operations. How will LocalCo's expansion decision be affected by state and local tax considerations?
