28174 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 108 / Tuesday, June 4, 1996 / Notices

which there were no corresponding

home market model matches, in

accordance with section 773(a) of the

Tariff Act.

Home market price, for the 1992–93

and 1993–94 PORs for all companies

subject to these reviews, was based on

a packed, FOB or CIF, delivered price to

related and unrelated purchasers in

Japan. We calculated CV for Izumi for

the 1993–94 POR as the sum of

materials, fabrication costs, general

expenses, profit and U.S. packing. We

added statutory or actual amounts for

the general expenses and profit

components of CV, as appropriate.

For PP sales comparisons, where

applicable, for all companies subject to

the 1992–93 and 1993–94 PORs, we

made deductions from FMV for

brokerage, inland freight, insurance and

discounts. Where applicable, we made

adjustment for differences in packing

expenses, credit expenses, advertising

expenses, warranty expenses, technical

services, and differences in

merchandise. We made further

adjustments, where appropriate, for U.S.

commissions in accordance with 19 CFR

353.56(a)(2). Where commissions were

paid on U.S. sales and not paid on home

market sales, we allowed an offset to

FMV amounting to the lesser of the

weighted-average home market indirect

selling expenses or the U.S.

commissions in accordance with 19 CFR

353.58(b) of the Department’s

regulations. We also made an

adjustment to FMV for consumption

taxes in accordance with the ‘‘Zenith

footnote 4’’ methodology discussed

above.

For comparison to ESP sales by Daido

and Enuma during the 1992–93 and

1993–94 PORs, we allowed an ESP

offset to FMV, amounting to the lesser

of the weighted-average total of home

market indirect selling expenses or the

total U.S. indirect selling expenses, in

accordance with 19 CFR 353.56(b)(2).

No other adjustments were claimed or

allowed.

We conducted an arms’s length test

and determined that Izumi’s sales to its

related customers during the 1993–94

POR were made at arm’s length because

the prices Izumi charged to its related

customers were at least 99.5 percent of

the prices it charged to unrelated

customers.

Preliminary Results of the Review

As a result of this review, we

preliminarily determine the following

dumping margins for the period April 1,

1992 through March 31, 1993:

Manufacturer/exporter Margin

(percent)

Daido ........................................... 0.15

Enuma ......................................... 0.04

Further, we preliminarily determine the

following dumping margins for the

period April 1, 1993 through March 31,

1994:

Manufacturer/exporter Margin

(percent)

Hitachi ......................................... *12.68

Izumi ........................................... 23.57

Pulton .......................................... **43.29

RK Excel ..................................... 2.17

Daido ........................................... 0.03

Enuma ......................................... 0.06

All Others .................................... 15.92

* No sales during the period. Rate is from

the last period in which there were sales.

** Not a calculated rate. Rate reflects the assignment of first-tier total BIA (see BIA section

above).

The Department shall determine, and

Customs shall assess, antidumping

duties on all appropriate entries.

Individual differences between United

States price and FMV may vary from the

percentages stated above. Upon

completion of the review the

Department will issue appraisement

instructions on each exporter directly to

Customs.

Interested parties may request

disclosure within five days of the date

of publication of this notice, and may

request a hearing within ten days of the

date of publication. Any hearing, if

requested, will be held as early as

convenient for the parties but not later

than 44 days after the date of

publication or the first work day

thereafter. Case briefs or other written

comments from interested parties may

be submitted not later than 30 days after

the date of publication of this notice.

Rebuttal briefs and rebuttal comments,

limited to issues in the case briefs, may

be filed not later than 37 days after the

date of publication. The Department

will publish the final results of this

administrative review, including the

results of its analysis of issues raised in

any such written comments or at a

hearing.

Furthermore, the following deposit

requirements will be effective for all

shipments of roller chain, other than

bicycle, from Japan, entered, or

withdrawn from warehouse, for

consumption on or after the publication

date of the final results of these

administrative reviews, as provided by

section 751(a)(1) of the Act:

(1) The cash deposit rate for the

reviewed companies will be those rates

outlined above, except for Daido and

Enuma, which, because their weightedaverage margins were de minimis, will

be zero percent;

(2) For previously reviewed or

investigated companies not listed above,

the cash deposit rate will continue to be

the company-specific rate published for

the most recent period;

(3) If the exporter is not a firm

covered in this review, a prior review,

or in the original less-than-fair-value

(LTFV) investigation, but the

manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate

will be the rate established for the most

recent period for the manufacturer of

the merchandise; and

(4) If neither the exporter nor the

manufacturer is a firm covered in this or

any previous review conducted by the

Department, the cash deposit rate will

be 15.92, the ‘‘all-others’’ rate based on

the first review conducted by the

Department in which a ‘‘new shipper’’

rate was established in the final results

of antidumping finding administrative

review (48 FR 51801, November 14,

1983).

These deposit requirements, when

imposed, shall remain in effect until

publication of the final results of the

next administrative review.

This notice serves as a preliminary

reminder to importers of their

responsibility under 19 CFR 353.26 to

file a certificate regarding the

reimbursement of antidumping duties

prior to liquidation of the relevant

entries during this 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.

This administrative review and notice

are in accordance with section 751(a)(a)

of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1))

and 19 CFR 353.22.
