56Article 2(11) of the basic regulation states that the weighted average normal value is to be compared with ‘a weighted average of prices of all export transactions to the Community’. In this case, in making that comparison, the use of the practice of ‘zeroing’ negative dumping margins was in fact made by modifying the price of the export transactions. Therefore, by using that method the Council did not calculate the overall dumping margin by basing its calculation on comparisons which fully reflect all the comparable export prices and, therefore, in calculating the margin in that way, it committed a manifest error of assessment with regard to Community law.
