Upon tbe agreed facts, I find cost of production, as that value is defined in section 402(f) of tbe Tariff Act of 1930, or in section 402a (f) of said tariff act, as amended by tbe Customs Simplification Act of 1956, to be tbe proper basis for the determination of tbe value of tbe automobiles and finished parts covered by the instant appeal for reappraisement, and that such values were as indicated in schedules A and B, attached to this decision and made a part thereof, it being understood that the articles, enumerated in said schedule B as “Bus or Buses, Van or Vans, Truck or Trucks, Lowloader or High-loader,” cover said articles whether invoiced with or without other descriptive or qualifying words or numerals.

In all other respects and as to all other merchandise, the said appeal for reappraisement, having been abandoned, is hereby dismissed.
