| Further Manufacturing Adjustment | Trade | In calculating a constructed export price, the Department normally deducts from the price of the merchandise sold in the United States the cost of any further manufacture or assembly performed in the United States by, or for, the exporter or an affiliate. However, if the value of the further processing is likely to exceed substantially the value of the subject merchandise in its imported condition, the Department may use an alternative basis for the constructed export price. If possible, the Department would use the price of subject merchandise sold to an unaffiliated customer by the producer, exporter, or affiliated seller. If there is an insufficient quantity of such sales, the Department may rely on any other reasonable basis. (references) |
