United States v. Kittleson

This appeal for reappraisement has been submitted for decision upon the following stipulation of counsel for the parties hereto:

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and between counsel for the respective parties hereto, subject to the approval of the Court, that the merchandise subject of the reappraisement herein consists of brooms exported from Cuba, and that the proper dutiable value of said merchandise is the export value as defined in Section 402 (d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, and that at the time ■of exportation of the merchandise covered by said reappraisement, such or similar merchandise was freely offered for sale to all purchasers for export to the United States in the principal markets of Cuba in the usual wholesale quantity and in the •ordinary course of trade, plus, when not included in such price, the cost of containers and coverings of whatever nature and or other costs, charges and expenses incident to placing the merchandise in condition, packed ready for shipment to the United States, and that such export value is $5.90 per dozen, packed.

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that there was no higher foreign market value for the merchandise herein on the date of exportation.

IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that this case may be submitted on the foregoing stipulation.

On the agreed facts I find the export value, as that value is defined in section 402 (d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, to be the proper basis for the determination of the value of the merchandise here involved, and that such value was $5.90 per dozen, packed.

Judgment will be rendered accordingly.
