For the purpose of analysing price undercutting, the weighted average sales prices of the sampled Community producers charged to unrelated customers on the Community market, adjusted to an ex-works level, were compared to the corresponding weighted average prices of the dumped imports from the USA, established on a CIF basis for the sampled exporting producers in the USA which were found to be dumping into the Community market.
For at kunne undersøge prisunderbuddet blev de vejede gennemsnitlige salgspriser, som EF-producenterne i stikprøven opkrævede af ikke-forretningsmæssigt forbundne kunder på EF-markedet, justeret til ab fabrik, sammenlignet med de tilsvarende vejede gennemsnitlige priser for dumpingimporten fra USA, der var fastsat på cif-basis for de amerikanske eksporterende producenter i stikprøven, der, som man havde konstateret, solgte til dumpingpriser på EF-markedet.
