SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On October 27, 2016, the Department published the final results of 
the NSR of the antidumping duty order on certain cased pencils from the 
PRC. The review covers Wah Yuen Stationery Co., Ltd. and its affiliate, 
Shandong Wah Yuen Stationery Co., Ltd. (collectively, Wah Yuen) for the 
period of review (POR) December 1, 2014, through May 31, 2015.
    On October 28, 2016, Wah Yuen filed an allegation that the 
Department's calculation of the margin for Wah Yuen contained 
ministerial errors. In its ministerial error comments, Wah Yuen alleged 
that the Department erred in its calculation of the extended values for 
alkyd resin and acrylic resin. Wah Yuen argued that the Department 
calculated the freight component of the two input values incorrectly 
because it omitted the factors of production variable in both 
calculations. The Department reviewed the allegation and revised the 
calculation of the two inputs by multiplying the freight component for 
each input by the respective factor of production variable.\1\
