subsequent sale within a control

number.

Department’s Position: We agree with

respondents and have altered the

concordance program in order to

eliminate the compounding of the

adjustment factor for G&A and interest

expenses.

Allegation 3: SeAH states that the

Department limited the coverage of U.S.

sales to the period November 1, 1995

through October 31, 1996 and, in doing

so, excluded sales made prior to

November 1, 1995, but entered during

the period of review (‘‘POR’’) from the

concordance program. The petitioners

argue that the Department correctly

limited the sales analyzed to those sales

made during the POR.

SeAH also asserts that the Department

excluded sales from the year 1995 by

incorrectly naming the months of 1995

in the concordance program. According

to SeAH, this resulted in the absence of

all 1995 sales in the concordance table

and therefore, the use of constructed

value for all 1995 sales.

SeAH further states that the

Department has used two different sales

date variables in the concordance and

margin programs.

Department’s Position: We agree with

SeAH on all three issues. Accordingly,

we have altered the concordance

program in order to include export price

(EP) sales made before the POR but

entered during the POR (see, comment

2 of the Final Results, at 32836).

Furthermore, since we incorrectly

named the variable representing sales

during 1995, we have altered the

concordance program to correct this

problem. Finally, we corrected the

inconsistent use of date variables in the

margin program by using the contract

date for all EP sales. For constructed

export price (‘‘CEP’’) sales, we use the

variable SALEDTU (sale date) as

discussed in our Final Results.

Allegation 4: SeAH maintains that the

Department incorrectly excluded certain

sales with entry dates during the POR in

its margin analysis program.

Department’s Position: We agree with

SeAH. However, this error only applies

to EP sales. For EP sales, we have

substituted the field name ENTRDTU

for SHIPDT2U in the margin analysis

program to correct this error.

Allegation 5: SeAH alleges that the

Department double counted U.S.

commissions by adding the amount of

commissions to the foreign market price

and deducting commissions from U.S.

price.

Department’s Position: We agree with

SeAH. To correct this error, we have

eliminated the deduction of

commissions in the calculation of U.S.

price.

Allegation 6: SeAH states that the

Department’s adjustment to duty

drawback was incorrectly calculated for

CEP sales. SeAH argues that the

Department has negated the claimed

duty drawback and calculated a

downward adjustment to the U.S. price.

Department’s Position: We agree with

SeAH. To correct this error, we have

recalculated the duty drawback for

SeAH’s CEP sales (see SeAH Correction

of Ministerial Errors Calculation

Memorandum, June 9, 1998).

Allegation 7: Petitioners argue that the

Department neglected to include any

selling expenses in the formula for

calculating constructed value (‘‘CV’’)

profit while including such expenses

when calculating total CV.

Department’s Position: We disagree

with petitioners that we made a

ministerial error when calculating CV

profit. When calculating CV profit we

applied the profit rate to a cost of

production figure exclusive of certain

selling expenses. We did this because

the profit rate was also calculated on a

basis exclusive of the same selling

expenses. Thus, we intentionally did

not include selling expenses when

calculating CV profit, and therefore, this

is not a ministerial error.

Amended Final Results of Review

As a result of the amended margin

calculations, the following weightedaverage percentage margins exist for the

period November 1, 1995 through

October 31, 1996:

Manufacturer/Exporter Percentage

margin

Hyundai ..................................... 2.64

In accordance with the methodology

in the Final Results of Antidumping

Duty Administrative Review and Partial

Termination of Administrative Review:

Circular Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe

from Korea (62 FR 55574), October 27,

1997, we calculated exporter/importerspecific assessment values by dividing

the total antidumping duties due for

each importer by the number of tons

used to determine the duties due. We

will direct the Customs Service to assess

the resulting per-ton dollar amount

against each ton of the merchandise

entered by these importers during the

review period.

We will also direct the Customs

Service to collect cash deposits of

estimated antidumping duties on all

appropriate entries in accordance with

the procedures discussed in the Final

Results and as amended by this

determination. The amended deposit

requirements will be effective for all

shipments of the subject merchandise

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,

for consumption on or after the

publication date of this notice and shall

remain in effect until publication of the

final results of the next administrative

review.

This notice serves as a final reminder

to importers of their responsibility to

file a certificate regarding the

reimbursement of antidumping duties

prior to liquidation of the relevant

entries during this review period.

Failure to comply with this requirement

could result in the Secretary’s

presumption that reimbursement of

antidumping duties occurred and the

subsequent assessment of double

antidumping duties.

We are issuing and publishing this

determination in accordance with

sections 751(h) and 777(i) of the Act and

19 CFR 353.28(c).

Dated: July 15, 1998.
