Generally, Commerce looks to section 735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the all-others rate in an investigation, for guidance when calculating the rate for separate rate respondents which Commerce did not examine individually in an administrative review. For the final results of this review, Commerce determined the estimated dumping margins for Ancientree and Weisen to be zero. For the reasons explained in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, we are assigning this rate to the non-examined respondents which qualify for a separate rate in this review. <SU>12</SU> <FTREF/> <FTNT> <SU>11</SU>   <E T="03">See</E> Appendix II. </FTNT> <FTNT> <SU>12</SU>   <E T="03">See</E> Issues and Decision Memorandum at Comment 4. </FTNT> <HD SOURCE="HD1">China-Wide Entity</HD> As stated in the <E T="03">Preliminary Results,</E> because no party requested a review of the China-wide entity is not under review and the China-wide entity's rate, <E T="03">i.e.,</E> 251.64 percent, is not subject to change. <SU>13</SU> <FTREF/> Commerce considers all other companies, listed in appendix III of this notice, for which a review was requested, and which did not demonstrate separate rate eligibility, to be part of the China-wide entity, including Jiangsu Sunwell Cabinetry Co., Ltd. <FTNT> <SU>13</SU>   <E T="03">See Preliminary Results,</E> 89 FR 35785. </FTNT> <HD SOURCE="HD1">Final Results of Administrative Review</HD> Commerce determines that the following estimated weighted-average dumping margin exists for the administrative review covering the period April 1, 2022, through March 31, 2023: <GPOTABLE COLS="2" OPTS="L2,tp0,i1" CDEF="s200,16"> <TTITLE> </TTITLE> <CHED H="1">Exporter</CHED> <CHED H="1"> Weighted-average <ENT I="01">Jiangsu Weisen Houseware Co., Ltd</ENT> <ENT>0.00</ENT> </ROW> <ROW> <ENT I="01">The Ancientree Cabinet Co., Ltd</ENT> <ENT>0.00</ENT> </ROW> <ROW> <ENT I="01"> Non-Selected Companies Under Review Receiving a Separate Rate  <SU>14</SU> </ENT> <ENT>0.00</ENT> </ROW> </GPOTABLE> <HD SOURCE="HD1"> Appendix II. </FTNT> Normally, Commerce discloses to interested parties the calculations of the final results of an administrative review within five days of a public announcement or, if there is no public announcement, within five days of the date of publication of the notice of final results in the <E T="04">Federal Register</E> <E T="03">,</E> in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b).
