United States Federal Circuit

In a silicon metal antidumping case, the Court of International Trade erred by calculating the dumping company's financial costs by examining the records of only its immediate Brazilian parent. Dep't of Commerce should be allowed to examine the entire record (including the Belgian parent company) to determine financial costs.
