CBP's answer: A. A: $65,000.00

CBP keyed $65,000. The press facts and invoice are on pages not shown in the exhibit images, so the figures cannot be rebuilt here. The regulation behind the key is that transaction value starts from the price actually paid or payable (152.103(a)(1)) and does not include separately identified post-importation charges such as assembly or technical assistance, transportation after importation, or duties and federal taxes (152.103(i)). The larger answers add costs of that kind.

the price actually paid or payable will be considered without regard to its method of derivation 19 CFR 152.103(a)(1)

The transaction value of imported merchandise does not include any of the following, if identified separately from the price actually paid or payable 19 CFR 152.103(i)
