SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On December 14, 1994, December 16, 1994, and January 6, 1995, the 
CIT issued orders directing the Department to recalculate the value-
added tax (VAT) according to the methodology employed in Federal Mogul 
v. United States, 834 F. Supp. 1391 (CIT October 7, 1993) (Federal 
Mogul) for various companies for the periods April 1, 1986 through 
March 31, 1987 (third review), April 1, 1989 through March 31, 1990 
(sixth review), and April 1, 1991 through March 31, 1992 (eighth 
review). Also, on December 16, 1994, the CIT directed the Department in 
the eighth review to establish a methodology for the adjustment to 
United States price for uncollected import duties forgiven upon export.
    Pursuant to the instructions of the CIT, the Department calculated 
the VAT consistent with the methodology employed in Federal Mogul, for 
various companies for the third, sixth, and eighth reviews. The 
Department established a methodology for calculating and made an 
adjustment in the eighth review for uncollected import duties on 
exported merchandise. On April 25, 1995, the Court affirmed our 
application of the VAT methodology, and adjustments for uncollected 
import duties.

Amended Final Results of Review

    The results of our calculations are presented below:

                Company                         Period         (percent)

AOC....................................  4/1/86-3/31/87......      0.88

Tatung.................................  4/1/91-3/31/92......      1.75 
------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Based on the results of the eighth review (4/1/91-3/31/92), the 
Department will instruct the Customs Service to collect cash deposits 
of estimated antidumping duties on all appropriate entries for Action, 
Proton, and Tatung in accordance with the procedures discussed in the 
final results of these reviews. Because AOC had no shipments during the 
eighth review, and has filed an appeal concerning the final results for 
the seventh review, the Department will make no changes to AOC's cash 
deposit rate at this time. These deposit requirements are effective for 
all shipments of the subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse, for consumption on or after the date of publication of this 
notice and shall remain in effect until publication of the final 
results of the next administrative review.
    The Department will issue appraisement instructions directly to the 
Customs Service for each exporter.
    This notice serves as a 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 the review period. Failure to comply with this 
requirement could result in the presumption that reimbursement of 
antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent assessment of double 
antidumping duties.
    This amendment of final results of review and notice are in 
accordance with section 751(f) of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. 1673(d) and 
19 CFR 353.28(c).

    Dated: August 4, 1995.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
