OPINION AND ORDER
Barnett, Judge:In this action ABB, Inc. (“Plaintiff’ or “ABB”) challenges the final results of the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Commerce”) in its first administrative review of the antidumping duty order on large power transformers (“LPTs”) from the Republic of Korea for the February 16, 2012 to July 31, 2013 period of review (“POR”).

(“HHI”) and Hyundai Corp., USA (collectively, “Hyundai”), and Hyosung Corp. and HICO America Sales and Technology, Inc. (collectively, “Hyo-sung”) are based on data that were unreliable and are therefore unsupported by substantial evidence and not in accordance with law. See generally Conf. Pl.’s Mem. of Law in Supp. of Mot. for J. on the Agency R. (“Pl.’s MJAR.”), ECF No. 45-1. Plaintiff further argues that Commerce should have used facts available or “adverse facts available” to arrive at more accurate dumping margins for Hyosung and Hyundai. See id. at 33, 39-42. Finally, Plaintiff argues that Commerce should not have granted home market commission offsets to Hyosung and Hyundai and that its decision to do so is unsupported by substantial evidence and not in accordance with law. Id. at 47-52; see also Conf. PL’s Reply Br. (“PL’s Reply”) at 18-22, ECF No. 69. For the reasons detailed below, the Court will sustain, in part, and remand, in part, Commerce’s Final Results.
Background
The present case challenges the final results of Commerce’s first administrative review of the antidumping duty order on large power transformers from the Republic of Korea. See generally Final Results] see also Large Power Transformers from the Republic of Korea, 77 Fed. Reg. 53, 177 (Dep’t Commerce Aug. 31, 2012) (anti-*1165dumping duty order) (“AD Order”). The Court begins with a brief discussion of the original investigation to the extent that it is relevant to the issues raised by Plaintiff in this case.
I. Original Investigation
On August 10, 2011, Commerce initiated an antidumping duty investigation on large power transformers from Korea. Large Power Transformers from the Republic of Korea, 77 Fed. Reg. 9,204 (Dep’t Commerce Feb. 16, 2012) (prelim, determination of sales at less than fair value and postponement of final determination) (“LTFV Prelim. Notice”), The period of investigation (“POI”) was from July 1, 2010, through June 30, 2011. Large Power Transformers from the Republic of Korea, 77 Fed. Reg. 40,857 (Dep’t Commerce July 11, 2012) (final determination of sales at less than fair value) (“LTFV Final Results”), CJA, Doc. 5; PJA, Doc. 5 and accompanying Issues and Decision Mem., A-580-867 (July 2, 2012) (“LTFV I & D Mem.”) at 2, CJA, Doc. 6; PJA, Doc. 6. Commerce selected Hyundai and Hyosung as mandatory respondents and issued its final determination on July 11,2012. LTFV Prelim. Notice, 77 Fed. Reg. at 9,205; see generally LTFV Final Results.
In the final determination for the less than fair value (“LTFV”) investigation and accompanying Issues and Decision Memo, Commerce addressed the issue of “un-shipped sales,” explaining that when “the merchandise under consideration. are large, complex, capital intensive custom made products that take many months to produce and install, the Department is often faced with the decision to balance the use of actual costs in their entirety with maximizing the population of sales to use to calculate a dumping margin.” LTFV I & D Mem. at 43-44, 61-62. In the investigation, Commerce extended the period for reporting actual costs incurred to six months beyond the end of the POI. Id. at 43. However, in calculating the dumping margins, Commerce used only POI sales that had been completed and shipped as of December 31, 2011, and excluded from consideration those sales that were incomplete or unshipped as of that date.' Id. Commerce reasoned that; because the unfinished sales continued to be produced, the relevant sales and cost data would continue to change. Id.; see also id. at 59 (Hyosung explained that customers may request additional services or cancel previously requested services up until the time of delivery).
II. First Administrative Review
On October 2, 2013, Commerce initiated the first administrative review for the period February 16, 2012 through July 31, 2013. Initiation of Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Admin. Reviews and Request for Revocation in Part, 78 Fed. Reg. 60,834 (Dep’t Commerce Oct. 2, 2013), CJA, Doc. 7; PJA, Doc. 7; P.R. 6. ABB requested the review, and Hyosung and Hyundai were again selected as mandatory respondents. I & D Mem. at 3.
As part of the review, Commerce requested that both Hyosung and Hyundai report actual and/or updated data for all transactions that were shipped, sold and entered the Unitéd States during the POR, including “overlapping sales” that were reported based on estimated data during the investigation, but had shipped during the POR. Id. at 14-16 (explaining the issue of “overlapping sales” with respect to Hyo-sung and noting Commerce’s request for updated information for all “overlapping sales” shipping during POR); see also id. at 47 (explaining the issue of “overlapping sales” with respect to Hyundai); see also LTFV I & D Mem. at 42-44, 61-62. .
*1166On September 24, 2014, Commerce published the preliminary results of its review. Large Power Transformers from the Republic of Korea, 79 Fed. Reg. 57,046 (Dep’t Commerce Sept. 24, 2014) (prelim, results of antidumping duty admin, review; 2012-2013) (“Prelim. Results”), CJA, Doc. 27; PJA, Doc. 27; P.R. 217 and accompanying Issues and Decision Mem., A-580-867 (Sept. 18, 2014) (“Prelim. I & D Mem.”), CJA, Doc. 62; PJA, Doc. 62; P.R. 208.3 On March 31, 2015, Commerce issued the Final Results. Final Results, 80 Fed. Reg. at 17,034. ABB timely filed the present case on April 10, 2015. See generally Summons, ECF No. 1; Compl., ECF No. 6. Subsequently (and with leave from this Court), on May 6, 2015, Commerce issued the First Amended Final Results and then, on June 22, 2015, the Second Amended Final Results, both in response to allegations of ministerial error. See First Am. Final Results, 80 Fed. Reg. 26,001; Sec. Am. Final Results, 80 Fed. Reg. at 35,628; Order, ECF No. 24 (June 3, 2015).4 The second amended final results assigned weighted average dumping margins of 8.23 percent and 12.36 percent to Hyosung and Hyundai respectively. See Sec. Am. Final Results, 80 Fed. Reg. at 35,629.
Jurisdiction and Standard op Review
The court has jurisdiction pursuant to § 516A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(B)(i) (2012),5 and 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c) (2012).
The court will uphold an agency determination that is supported by substantial evidence and otherwise in accordance with law. 19' U.S.C. § 1516a(b)(l)(B)(i). “Substantial evidence is ‘such relevant evidence as a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion.’” Huaiyin Foreign Trade Corp. (30) v. United States, 322 F.3d 1369, 1374 (Fed. Cir. 2003) (quoting Consol. Edison Co. v. NLRB., 305 U.S. 197, 229, 59 S.Ct. 206, 83 L.Ed. 126 (1938)). It “‘requires more than a mere scintilla,” but “less than the weight of the evidence.” Nucor Corp. v. United States, 34 C.I.T. 70, 72, 675 F.Supp.2d 1340, 1345 (2010) (quoting Attx, Inc. v. United States, 370 F.3d 1108, 1116 (Fed. Cir. 2004)). In determining whether substantial evidence supports Commerce’s determination, the court must consider “the record as a whole, including evidence that supports as well as evidence that ‘fairly detracts from the substantiality of the’'evidence.’” Nippon Steel Corp. v. United States, 337 F.3d 1373, 1379 (Fed. Cir. 2003) (quoting Atl. Sugar, Ltd. v. United States, 744 F.2d 1556, 1562 (Fed. Cir. 1984)). However, the fact that a plaintiff can point to evidence that detracts *1167from the agency’s conclusion or that there is a possibility of drawing two inconsistent conclusions from the evidence does not preclude the agency’s finding from being supported by substantial evidence. Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. United States, 750 F.2d 927, 933 (Fed. Cir. 1984) (citing Consolo % Fed. Mar. Comm’n, 383 U.S. 607, 619-20, 86 S.Ct. 1018, 16 L,Ed.2d 131 (1966)). The court may not. “reweigh the evidence or ... reconsider questions of fact anew.” Downhole Pipe & Equip., L.P. v. United States, 776 F.3d 1369, 1377 (Fed. Cir. 2015) (quoting Trent Tube Div., Crucible Materials Corp. v. Avesta Sandvik Tube AB, 975 F.2d 807, 815 (Fed. Cir. 1992)); see also Usinor v. United States, 28 C.I.T. 1107, 1111, 342 F.Supp.2d 1267, 1272 (2004) (citation omitted) (the court “may not reweigh the evidence or substitute its own judgment for that of the agency”).
Separately, the two-step framework provided in Chevron, U.S.A., Inc. v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc. 467 U.S. 837, 842-45, 104 S.Ct. 2778, 81 L.Ed.2d 694 (1984), guides judicial review of the Department’s interpretation of the antidump-ing and countervailing duty statutes. See Nucor Corp. v. United States, 414 F.3d 1331, 1336 (Fed. Cir. 2005). First, the Court “must determine whether Congress has directly spoken to the precise question at issue.” Heino v. Shinseki, 683 F.3d 1372, 1377 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (quoting Chevron, 467 U.S. at 842/104 S.Ct. 2778). If Congress’s intent is clear, “that is the end of the matter.” Id. (quoting Chevron, 467 U.S. at 842-43, 104 S.Ct. 2778). However, “[i]f the statute is silent or ambiguous,” the Court must determine “whether the agency’s [action] is based on a permissible construction of the statute.” Dominion Res., Inc. v. United States, 681 F.3d 1313, 1317 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (citing Chevron, 467 U.S. at 842-43, 104 S.Ct. 2778).
Discussion
I. Hyosung’s Final Margin Determination
ABB argues that Commerce’s determination of Hyosung’s final margin is unsupported by substantial evidence on the record because discrepancies exist between data that Hyosung provided to Commerce during the LTFV investigation and the first administrative review. ABB argues that these and- other discrepancies undermine -the reliability of Hyosung’s U.S. price and expense data and Commerce should have used facts available or facts available with an adverse inference (“adverse facts available” or “AFA”)6 to calculate Hyosung’s dumping margin. In support of this argument, ABB identifies a number of alleged discrepancies in Hyo-sung’s data. See generally Pl.’s MJAB. at 14-36. Defendant argues that Commerce confirmed-the accuracy of Hyosung’s data by issuing multiple questionnaires and reviewing source documentation, and that the difference in , data between the LFTV investigation and the first administrative review is attributable to Hyosung having provided estimated data during the LTFV investigation and actual data during the review. See generally Conf. Def.’s Resp. to Pl.’s Rule 56.2 Mot. for J. on the Agency R. (“Def.’s Resp.”), ECF No. 61 at 12-17.
*1168A. The Reliability of Hyosung’s U.S. Price and Expense Data
i. Discrepancies in Hyosung’s Data for Overlapping Sales
ABB contends that “Commerce relied on inconsistent and inaccurate data” submitted by Hyosung that artificially increased reported U.S. prices in the underlying [first administrative review] from those verified for the same sales reported in the immediately preceding original investigation” and that Commerce failed to “adequately address this detracting information in the Final Results.” Pl.’s MJAR at 14 (underline omitted). ABB’s claims rest on allegations of discrepancies in price and expense data reported for U.S. sales that were unshipped during the original investigation and that entered the United States during the first administrative review (referred to as “overlapping sales”), Id. Defendant notes that Commerce issued multiple questionnaires in response to ABB raising this concern during the administrative proceeding and reasonably determined that the data was sound. Defi.’s Resp. at 12-13,
' The Court reviews Commerce’s determination for substantial evidence on the record. In response to ABB’s concern regarding the discrepancies between the estimated and actual data,' Hyosung responded to multiple supplemental questionnaires, providing information to permit Commerce to evaluate the reliability of Hyosung’s data. I & D Mem. at 16-17; see e.g, Hyosung’s Apr. 10, 2014, Supplemental Section A-C Questionnaire Response (“Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR”) at 23-24, ECF Nos. 82-9 — 82-14; C.R. 255-260; P.R. 125-126; Hyosung’s July 2, 2014, Supplemental Section A-C Questionnaire Response (“Hyosung July 2 SQR”) at. S-18 — S-22, .ECF No. 82-26; C.R. 308-14; P.R. 160-61. ■ Commerce determined that Hyosung persuasively demonstrated the completeness and accuracy of its reported sales by providing source documentation such ; as “sales contracts/purchase orders, amended purchase orders, invoices, payment records, and numerous other documents” and that “[ABB’s] analyses are misplaced and simply incorrect in ■ each instance.” I & D Mem. at 16. Commerce also concluded that ABB’s claims regarding the changes in data for the overlapping sales “can be attributed to either Petitioner’s own misrepresentation of record evidence^] or'(l) the reporting of estimated values .., (2) consideration of amended or revised purchase orders issued by the U.S. customer, or (3) expanded scope of services requested by the U.S. customer for the sale ..Id. at 16..
The Court has reviewed the record evidence showing that Commerce requested documents and information, and Hyosung complied with these requests in order to address questions about its data. The Court, finds that Commerce’s conclusion that Hyosung’s data was reliable, is supported by substantial evidence on the record. I & D Mem. at 16 n. 77 (noting multiple questionnaire responses from Hyosung). It logically follows from the circumstances surrounding the “overlapping sales” that the estimates reported during the LFTV investigation could and would differ from the actual costs reported during the administrative review, and both Commerce and Hyosung had anticipated this.7 Moreover, the critical question for *1169this administrative review is whether Hyo-sung adequately substantiated the data it is now reporting. As detailed in the Issues and Decision Memo, Commerce reviewed numerous documents, including contracts, purchase orders, invoices and amended invoices, and payment records to confirm Hyosung’s data and reasonably found that it was accurate as reported. I & D Mem. at 16.
' ABB also raised certain' Specific issues regarding Hyosung’s data and the Court will now address those in turn.
• ABB’s First Selected Transaction
To illustrate its claim that there were discrepancies in the data supplied by Hyosung, ABB alleges that Hyosung reported an increase in gross unit price for a selected transaction at the same time as it reported a decrease in the actual cost of producing the unit.8 Pl.’s MJAR at 19. ABB argues that there is insufficient evidence in the record to support Hyosung’s explanations for these changes.9 Id, at 21. Defendant contends that Commerce examined this allegation during the review and that Hyosung addressed it in its Fourth Supplemental Sales Questionnaire Response (Aug. 21, 2014). .Def.’s Resp. at 15 (citing Hyosung’s August 21, 2014, Fourth Supplemental Sales ■ Questionnaire Response (“Hyosung Aug. 21 SQR”), CJA, Doc. 22; PJA, Doc. 22; C.R.,367-370; P.R. 194). In that response, Hyosung explained that it had provided an estimated cost to the customer based on revised customer requirements. Id,; see also Hyo-sung Aug. 21 SQR at 11. The customer accepted this estimate. Id.-, see also Hyo-sung Aug. 21 SQR at 11. Subsequently, Hyosung’s design team developed a more efficient unit and Hyosung experienced a decline in raw material costs. Id.-, see also Hyosung Aug. 21 SQR at 15-16. As such, Hyosung was able to produce the unit at a lower cost, éven though the customer had accepted a higher price. Id-, see also Hyo-sung Aug. 21 SQR at 10-16. Commerce found that Hyosung had sufficiently demonstrated that changes in data between the original investigation and the first administrative review were attributable to the reporting of estimated versus actual values and amended or revised purchase orders. I &D Mem, at 16 & n. 77.
The Court finds that substantial evidence supports Commerce’s reliance on Hyosung’s, reported price and costs for this transaction. See, e.g., Hyosung Aug. 21 SQR at 10-16. Hyosung responded to every, request issued by Commerce regarding this sale, and supplied data and supporting documentation for its responses. See I & D Mem. at 17. While ABB claims that it was unable to locate a specific document (a test sheet) that should have further confirmed the size and weight of the final product, ABB was not able to identify where or when Commerce requested this particular document. The absence, of this unrequested document is contrasted by the record as a whole and the remainder of the documentation and explanations provided by Hyosung to Commerce during the *1170course of the administrative review. Therefore, the Court declines to reweigh the evidence upon which Commerce relied. See Downhole Pipe & Equip., 776 F.3d at 1377; see also Usinor, 28 C.I.T. at 1111, 342 F.Supp.2d at 1272. In view of the record as a whole and Commerce’s investigation of ABB’s allegation, the Court finds that Commerce’s determination with respect to this transaction is based on substantial evidence.
ii. Hyosung’s Gross Unit Price (GUP) Relative to Reported Expenses
ABB argues that there is conflicting data on the record regarding Hyosung’s reported expenses and gross unit prices. ABB alleges that there are discrepancies in Hyundai’s reported freight expenses that result in improperly marked-up freight revenues beyond actual costs and consequently, inflated U.S. prices. See PL’s MJAR at 23-24. ABB identifies a second selected transaction to illustrate its point.10 Id. 22-24. ABB argues that Commerce should have addressed this by capping freight revenue at actual cost. Id. at 24. Additionally, ABB contrasts certain expense amounts reported to Commerce with different expense amounts reported for other reasons11 to suggest that either the expenses reported to Commerce are understated or the prices are overstated. Id. at 30-31. For each allegation raised, the Court finds that Commerce requested and reviewed directly relevant source documentation substantiating Hyosung’s reported data, found Hyosung’s data to-be reliable, and made its determination based on substantial evidence in the record. -
a. Hyosung’s Freight Expense Data
ABB asserts that Hyosung increased the price for a second selected transaction based on a claim for increased freight expenses, which included a markup beyond the actual freight expense (i.e., profit). PL’s MJAR at 23. ABB contends that, as a result, “Commerce’s net price calculations are consistently overstated,’’ id. at 24, and that Commerce should have capped Hyosung’s freight revenue at the amount of the actual expense. Id. at 24, 30-34 (arguing that Commerce has a policy of capping revenues included in gross unit price at the level of expenses actually incurred, as evidenced in Certain Pasta from Italy, 78 Fed. Reg. 48, 146 (Dep’t. Commerce Aug 7, 2013) (prelim, results of antidumping duty admin, review; 2011-2012) and Prelim. Results in the 2011/2012 Admin. Review on Certain Pasta from Italy: Sales Analysis Mem. for the Prelim. Results—the Rummo Group (Dep’t Commerce July, 30, 2013), ECF No. 81).
Defendant responds that ABB mistakenly assumed freight revenue was allocated evenly across several units the sales of which were reported separately in Hyo-sung’s database when, in fact, Hyosung correctly had allocated a greater amount of revenue to one of the units.12 Def.’s *1171Besp. at 17-18; see also Hyosung’s Aug. 25, 2014 Fourth Supplemental Sales Questionnaire Response (“Hyosung Aug. 25 SQR”), Ex. S-l at JA101825, CJA, Doc. 23; PJA, Doc. 23; C.R. 371-73; P.R. 195-96 (revised U.S. sales database). The freight revenue was not allocated, evenly across units but, rather, it was allocated as it was incurred — with units shipped in multiples receiving a different per unit allocation of the freight expense. See id. (revised U.S. sales database noting ship dates and freight expenses for the relevant units). Defendant also explains that the “revenue figures used by ABB are not the reported data used in calculating [Hyo-sung’s] dumping margin,” and that “ABB’s analysis does not demonstrate that Hyo-sung’s reported gross unit prices are artificially inflated.” Def.’s Resp. at 18.
The Court first notes that Commerce identified this second selected transaction as one of the overlapping sales for which it gathered actual data during the POR (and for which Commerce had originally received estimated data during the LTFV investigation). See I & D Mem. at 34; see also Hyosung July 2 SQR at S-20 — S-21, CJA, Doc. 18; PJA, Doc. 18.13 As with other overlapping sales, Commerce explained that both the agency and Hyosung had anticipated changes in data from the LTFV investigation to the instant review, I & D Mem. at 35, and the Court has already addressed this argument above, see supra Discussion Section LAi. Moreover, with respect to the change in price for the second selected transaction, Commerce requested and received explanations and corresponding documentation from Hyosung. See Hyosung July 2 SQR at S-20 — S-21, CJA, Doc. 18; PJA, Doc. 18; see also Hyosung July 2 SQR at Ex. S — 11, CJA, Doc. 60; PJA, Doc. 60. Commerce accepted Hyosung’s explanation that the -data , changed because “subsequent to the original purchase order, the U.S. customer requested changes to the original purchase order (e.g., an .expanded scope of services),” and that this “understandably resulted in an increase to the build-up of the.total.reported gross unit price for this transaction.” I & D Mem. at 35. Hyosung supported its explanation for the price change with documentation, including revised purchase orders and HICO America’s invoice to the U.S. customer. Id; see also Hyosung July 2 SQR at .S-20 — S-21, CJA, Doc. 18; PJA, Doc. 18; see also Hyosung July 2 SQR at Ex. S-ll, CJA, Doc. 60; PJA, Doc. 60. In light of the Court’s previous analysis of the overlapping sales issue, the. documentation contained in the record, and Commerce’s determination that Hyosung provided adequate supporting documentation on the final price and expenses of this second selected transaction, the ' Court finds that Commerce’s decision to accept the price and expense data for this transaction is based on substantial evidence.
Responding to ABB’s argument that Commerce should have capped Hyosung’s freight revenue at the amount of the actual expense, Hyosung argues that while Commerce may have a policy of capping freight revenue, it would not apply in the case at bar because, unlike in Certain Pasta from Italy, cited by Plaintiff, Commerce did not request and Hyosung did not attempt to break out any freight or other charges included in its gross unit price. Conf. Hyo-sung’s Resp. in Opp’n to PI. ABB Inc.’s R. 56.2 Mot. for J. on the Agency R. (“Hyo-*1172sung Resp.”) at 26, ECF No. 66; Certain Pasta from Italy, 78 Fed. Reg. 48,147. Further, Hyosung argues that capping would be “inappropriate and distortive” in this case because it “established its prices through negotiations with its customers based on the particular terms of sale.” Hyosung Resp. at 27.14 Hyosung contends that capping was not warranted because the terms of sale included delivery and freight was not separately contracted for with the customer. See id. at 18-21, 25-26. The actual freight expenses were not stated in the purchase order because the amount could not be determined until delivery occurred. Hyosung Resp. at 18-19; see also Hyosung July 2 SQR, Ex. S-ll at JA 400460, CJA, Doc. 60; PJA, Doc. 60. Hyosung submitted its final invoice to Commerce documenting the expense at the time of delivery. Hyosung Resp. at 20; see also Hyosung July 2 SQR, Ex. S-ll at JA 400465-466, CJA, Doc. 60; PJA, Doc. 60.
Having reviewed the record compiled by Commerce, the Court finds that Commerce’s acceptance of the reported gross unit price and its use of the freight expense was based on substantial evidence. Commerce did not require Hyosung to report separately the freight revenue. Based on the terms of sale of this second selected transaction, Commerce reasonably treated freight revenue as included in the gross unit price and did not cap it. For the reasons discussed, the Court finds that Commerce’s treatment of Hyosung’s freight expense (and revenue) is based on substantial evidence.
b. Hyosung’s Expense Estimates in its Commission Agreements
ABB claims that Hyosung’s net U.S; prices reported to Commerce differed from the net Ú.S. prices Hyosung used to calculate commissions, and that the difference reflected profit on certain services that were not part of the LPT unit and should not have been included in the unit prices reported to Commerce. Pl.’s MJAR at 25. To illustrate its claim, ABB points to a third selected transaction15 and argues that “revenues and expenses from services have not been netted out of gross unit price at the same level as they have been included in Hyosung’s build-up of gross unit, price reported.to Commerce.” Id. at 25-26. Noting that Commerce focused on the wrong issue when it attributed the discrepancy to changes from estimated to actual expenses, ABB maintains that the data on the commission agreements show that the expenses used by Hyosung to build up “reported gross unit prices are inconsistent with’ the lower expenses reported as deductions to gross unit price.” Id. at 26. Defendant counters that ABB’s claims are unsubstantiated because ABB relies on secondary documents to make assumptions about gross unit price, whereas Hyosung has provided corroborating documents to substantiate its U.S. price and expense data with respect to this third selected transaction, specifically, and commission expenses, generally.16 Def s Resp. at 19-20; see also I & D Mem. at 18-21.
*1173This issue was broadly raised during the administrative proceeding and Commerce had an opportunity to review the expenses reported for this third selected transaction. See 1 & D Mem. at 18-21; see also Proprietary I & D Mem. — Hyosung at 3-4; Hyosung’s January 13, 2014, Section C Questionnaire Responses (“Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR”) at Ex. C-19, CJA, Doc. 11; PJA, Doc. 11; C.R. 62-74; P.R. 76-78 (sales commission calculation). It is clear from the Issues and Decision Memo and the documentation Hyosung provided that Hyosung properly supported each of the expenses used by Commerce in its margin calculation, including commissions and ocean freight. See I & D Mem. at 19-21; see also Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at Exs. S-36A-S-36C (purchase orders, invoices and sales representation agreements). Hyo-sung provided Commerce with “a copy of the commission statement sent to its U.S. sales agent for this sale, a worksheet demonstrating how the commission documentation reconciles to the U.S. sales listing, and documentation demonstrating that Hyo-sung paid the commission amount listed on the commission statement and reported in Hyosung’s U.S. sales database.” See I & D Mem. at 19; see also Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at Exs. S-36A-S-36C. In addition, Hyosung provided sample documentation, including purchase/sales orders, contract amendments, invoices, payments and commission agreements as needed, to support its commission calculations. I & D Mem. at 19. In contrast, ABB points to a secondary document, a sample commission calculation, to argue that Hyosung is reporting different expense data for the same sale. PL’s MJAR at 25; see also Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR at Ex. C-19; Hyosung’s First Supplemental Section A Questionnaire Resp. (“Hyosung’s Feb. 24 SAQR”) at Ex. SA-26, CJA, Doc. 13; PJA, Doc. 13; C.R. 199-206; P.R. 107.’ That Hyosung may have used expense figures for the purpose of negotiating its commissions' that were different from those reported to Commerce is inconsequential when Commerce has confirmed Hyosung’s reported expenses with documents directly related to the expense. See Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR at Ex. C-19; see also Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at Ex. S-36. Hyosung is under no obligation to negotiate commissions with its commission agents based upon the actual expenses calculated in the manner required by Commerce for antidumping reporting purposes. Any differences between the figures noted on the sample commission document and the actual expenses reported to Commerce do not call into question the accuracy of the expenses reported to Commerce and supported by the record. Consequently, the Court finds Commerce’s determination with regard to this issue to be supported by substantial evidence.
c. Comparisons of Hyosung’s Data Reported to Commerce and to Another Agency
ABB alleges that Hyosung’s U.S. gross unit prices were inflated as reported to Commerce because there is a difference between the figures reported to Commerce and the figures reported to another agency.17 ABB attempts to combine this difference with the changes from estimates to actual prices and expenses for several sales to call into question the reliability of Hyosung’s gross unit prices as reported.18 *1174See generally Pl.’s MJAR at 27-30. Defendant notes that ABB’s argument rests on a mistaken premise that the two sets of data should match, whe'n in fact different statutory and regulatory schemes apply at each agency that, use different base values and adjustments. Def.’s Resp. at 21; see also I & D Mem. at 8-10; Proprietary 1 & D Mem.—Hyosung at 1-7. Commerce found that ABB was effectively asking it to determine whether the data reported, to the other agency was accurate and that Commerce is “not in a position to make such a determination.” Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 3. Commerce reviewed supporting documentation for the data it received and concluded that Hyosung had substantiated the data to Commerce’s satisfaction. See Def.’s Resp. at 22; I & D Mem. at 21-22 (noting that Commerce relied on “supporting documentation directly related to the expense itself (e.g. invoices, payment documentation) to verify a respondent’s reporting of actual expense data”); Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 4-6.
The Court has already addressed and rejected ABB’s broader arguments relating to the differences between the estimated values and actual values reported for overlapping sales. With respect to the differences with data reported to another agency, Commerce reviewed substantiating documentation and concluded that Hyosung had accurately reported and supported its data to Commerce. See Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 6 n.27 (citing Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR at Ex. C-13). In addition to rejecting ABB’s general argument that ■ the ocean freight amounts should match, Commerce ‘ requested and reviewed data for certain of the identified transactions19 including the third selected transaction for which Hyosung provided detailed documentation supporting its reported expenses, such as ocean freight expenses.20 See Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR at Ex. C-13; Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at Ex. S—29; see also Proprietary I & D Mem. —Hyo-sung at 6-6. Commerce thus reviewed, among other documents, purchase orders, pricing proposals, invoices for international transport and oil, and entry summaries, and these documents are part of the record. See Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at Ex. S-29. Given that Commerce reviewed and the record contains directly relevant source documentation substantiating Hyosung’s reported .expenses, the Court finds that Commerce’s determination that Hyosung’s data is reliable is supported by substantial evidence on the record. Commerce does not have an additional obligation to confirm the veracity of information reported to another agency or to explain away differences in reporting between Commerce and another agency when it has otherwise taken adequate steps to address its record information.
iii. Hyosung’s Installation Expenses
ABB argues that Hyosung’s final dumping margin is inaccurate because *1175Hyosung reported its installation expenses improperly when it categorized them as direct selling expenses in the home market and reported them as indirect selling expenses in the U.S. market. According to ABB, this difference in treatment had the effect of understating the margin of dumping. See generally PL’s MJAR at 34-35. ABB raised this argument during the administrative proceeding and Commerce determined that Hyosung had documented all of its installation expenses accurately. I & D Mem. at 22-24. Further, Commerce allocated Hyosung’s installation expenses as reported because, in each case, Hyo-sung reported the installation expenses in accordance with the way they were maintained in their normal course of business. Id. at 23-24; Analysis of Data Submitted by Hyosung Corp. in the Prelim. Results of the 2012-2013 Admin. Review of the Antidumping Duty Order on Large Power Transformers from the Republic of Korea (“Prelim. Mem.—Hyosung”) at 8-9, ECF No. 82-3; C.R. 423; P.R. 209. Moreover, in the Preliminary Analysis Memo for Hyosung, Commerce put Hyosung on notice that, going forward, Hyosung would need to track and report its installation expenses consistently across the U.S. and home markets. See I & D Mem. at 24; Prelim. Mem.—Hyosung at 8.21
ABB relies on 19 C.F.R. § 351.410(c) to argue that installation expenses are necessarily direct because they bear a direct relationship to particular sales and that, Hyosung’s accounting practices notwithstanding, Commerce’s decision to accept Hyosung’s expenses as reported is not supported by law. See PL’s Reply at 10-12 (citing 19 C.F.R. § 351.410(c)). The regulation referenced by ABB simply provides the definition of a “direct selling expense.” 22 The regulation does not speak to the treatment of direct selling expenses. Moreover, the statute directs Commerce to calculate costs on the basis of the records of the producer or exporter of the merchandise. See 19 U.S.C. § 1677b(f)(l).23
The Court finds that Commerce’s decision to allocate Hyosung’s installation expenses as reported is supported by substantial evidence and in accordance with the law. Commerce examined ABB’s claim in detail during the administrative proceeding and Hyosung responded to multiple questions regarding the tracking of its installation expenses. See e.g. Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR; see also Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR. In its questionnaire responses, Hyo-sung explained that the different reporting of expenses was attributable to Hyosung’s business accounting practices. Hyosung Korea tracked all installation expenses by project; however, Hyosung’s U.S. affiliate, *1176HICO, did not.24 As a result, some-U.S. installation expenses were reported as indirect expenses. See I &D Mem. at 23-24; see also Prelim. Mem.—Hyosung at 8. Hyosung supported its explanation with corroborating documents. See generally Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR. Commerce determined that Hyosung had appropriately substantiated all its installation expenses25 and this determination is supported - by substantial evidence on the record. See I & D Mem. at 22-24; Prelim. Mem.—Hyosung at 8-9; see also Propriestary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 6-7.
Commerce’s decision to accept Hyo-sung’s installation expenses as reported also is in accordance with the law. While the regulations define direct expenses as those which bear a direct relationship to a particular sale, the statute also directs Commerce to calculate costs on the basis of the records of the producer or , exporter of the merchandise. See 19 U.S.C. § 1677b(f)(l). Commerce reasonably exercised its discretion to accept Hyosung’s installation expenses as reported and Hyo-sung’s explanation for the accounting inconsistency for the purpose of this first administrative review, while Commerce also put Hyosung on notice that it will require consistent reporting of these expenses in future reviews.261 & D Mem. at 23-24; Prelim. Mem.—Hyosung at 8-9.
B. Commerce’s Decision to not Utilize Facts Otherwise Available with respect to Hyosung
ABB argues that Commerce should have utilized facts available to fill gaps or reconcile differences in Hyosung’s record data. See PL’s MJAR at 33-36. Section 1677e of Title 19 provides that Commerce may use “facts otherwise available” in reaching the applicable determination if necessary information is not on the record or an interested party withholds information that has been requested, fails to provide such information in a timely manner, significantly impedes the proceeding, or provides information that cannot be verified. 19 U.S.C. § 1677e(a);see also 19 C.F.R. § 351.308.
ABB argues that Hyosung’s data is, unreliable and that Commerce should have applied facts otherwise available to arrive at the most accurate dumping margin. See Pl.’s MJAR at 33-36. However, as discussed above, Commerce reviewed ABB’s claims during the administrative proceed*1177ing, issued multiple questionnaires to Hyo-sung regarding alleged discrepancies, and ultimately concluded that Hyosung’s reported data was accurate. Commerce determined that Hyosung credibly, explained and documented its reported data, that it was fully cooperative, and responded to each of Commerce’s requests for additional information. See I & D Mein, at 17-18. As such, no “necessary” information was missing from the record. Thus, Commerce concluded that neither facts available nor AFA was warranted. Id. Having reviewed ABB’s claims and having found no reason to disturb Commerce’s determinations with regard to any of the specific arguments, the Court sustains Commerce’s determination on the application of facts available or AFA, ABB offers no additional support for this claim and instead is asking the Court to reweigh the evidence. The alleged discrepancies ABB identified in the record have been reviewed by the Court and the Court has found that each of Commerce’s determinations was based on substantial evidence in the record and in , accordance with the law. The Court, therefore, finds that Commerce’s decision not to use facts available or AFA is based on substantial evidence and in accordance with law.
II. Hyundai’s Final Dumping Margin/Hyundai’s Reported Prices and Selling Expenses
ABB argues that Hyundai’s reported data on prices and selling expenses is unreliable and that Commerce has a duty to calculate accurate margins and protect the integrity of its own proceeding.27 See generally Pl.’s MJAR at 36-47. As such, ABB asserts that Commerce should have used AFA. Id. at 39.- Further, ABB .claims that discrepancies in expenses reported by Hyundai for two selected transactions28 resulted in an improperly inflated gross unit price. Id. at 45. ABB also highlights discrepancies in the sequencing of certain documents that Hyundai provided to a separate agency29 (and placed.on Commerce’s record in order to substantiate its own reporting) to further argue that Hyundai’s data, as reported, is unreliable. PL’s MJAR at 43-47. Defendant argues that Hyundai adequately explained the alleged-.differences between the data that it reported to Commerce and to another agency, and that Commerce was able to independently verify Hyundai’s data through its own questionnaires. See generally Def.?s Resp. at 27-32. Defendant asserts that, for these reasons, AFA was not warranted. Id. at 31-32. Defendant also notes that ABB’s claims regarding the markup in gross unit price for two selected transactions were waived for failure to exhaust. Id. at 30. Finally, Defendant argues that Commerce reasonably determined that discrepancies in sequencing concerning a subset of Hyundai’s sales were insufficient to “outweigh the remaining record evidence indicating that Hyundai’s reported data are reliable,” Id. at 31. For the reasons discussed below, the Count sustains Commerce’s findings on the issue of whether AFA was warranted as a result of alleged discrepancies in data between Commerce and another agency. The Court also finds that ABB’s claims regarding an alleged improper markup in gross unit price were *1178not exhausted below. Finally, the Court remands the issue raised by ABB regarding the sequencing of certain documents.
A. Differences in Data Reported to Commerce and Another Agency
ABB argues that there were differences between the data Hyundai reported to Commerce and another agency which should have led Commerce to deem the data generally unreliable and Commerce should instead have used facts available or AFA to calculate Hyundai’s dumping margin. See generally Pl.’s MJAR at 36-47. ABB also alleges that a series of representations Hyundai made to the other agency should have spurred Commerce to find Hyundai’s data unreliable30 and that doing so would have satisfied Commerce’s responsibility to calculate accurate dumping margins and to protect the integrity of its own proceedings. Id. at 46-47. Defendant contends that Hyundai provided full explanations for the differences between expenses reported to the other agency and Commerce and that it is not Commerce’s obligation to evaluate the accuracy of Hyundai’s submissions to another agency. Def.’s Resp. at 27.
The Court is mindful that while Commerce has a responsibility to ensure the integrity of its own proceedings and to ensure that the data it uses in its margin calculations is accurate and supported by the record, this obligation does not extend to ensuring the accuracy of data or information that a respondent may report to another agency. It is clear from the record that, particularly on the issue of differences between data reported to Commerce and to the other agency, Hyundai fully participated in the review by responding to numerous questionnaires and supplemental questionnaires and by providing supporting documentation. See Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyundai at 5, 17.31 On the basis of Hyundai’s responses, Commerce concluded that Hyundai’s data, as it was reported to Commerce, was reliable, and that Hyundai’s explanations for any alleged inconsistency were credible and sufficient. Id. at 5-6. Further, Commerce noted that it was not in a position to draw conclusions on the reliability of data reported to it from representations made to another agency when the data reported to Commerce was appropriately substantiated. Id. Finally, Commerce stated that it was not in a position to determine whether representations made to the other agency were accurate as that was a matter properly within the purview of the other agency. Id. It is not the Court’s role to reweigh evidence already considered by the agency and there is substantial evidence supporting Commerce’s determination to rely on the information presented to it by Hyundai. Therefore, the Court finds no reason to upset the agency’s finding on this issue. ABB does not offer any further evidence supporting its claim that Hyundai’s data in this regard is unreliable.32 Thus, the Court *1179is satisfied that Commerce’s conclusion that Hyundai sufficiently substantiated its reporting to the Department is based on substantial evidence on the record.
On the limited question of whether Commerce should have used AFA due to differences in reporting to Commerce versus another agency, the Court is not persuaded by ABB’s argument. This court has previously found that the use of facts available or AFA is warranted when an interested party “failed to accurately respond” to Commerce’s questions and subsequently “fail[ed] to credibly explain the inconsistencies” identified by it in the course of the administrative review, leading Commerce to “reasonably infer” that the party “purposefully withheld [ ] information to avoid a higher dumping margin.” Shanghai Taoen Int’l Trading Co. v. United States, 29 C.I.T. 189, 195, 360 F.Supp.2d 1339, 1344-45 (CIT 2005). Given that Hyundai responded to multiple questionnaires and supplemental questionnaires, and supported its responses with source documentation, Commerce concluded that it cooperated with the review to the best of its ability. Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyundai at 5,17. While ABB is dissatisfied with Hyundai’s explanation for the alleged differences in reporting to Commerce and the other agency, it offers the Court nothing further than the argument it already made to Commerce and which Commerce already considered. There is nothing in the record that supports ABB’s allegation that Hyundai failed to accurately respond or credibly explain inconsistencies, or purposely withheld information to avoid a higher dumping margin. On the contrary, to the extent that there may have been issues with Hyundai’s reporting to the other agency, Hyundai placed those and related documents on the record for Commerce to review. See Hyundai Resp. at 12. On this basis, Commerce concluded that Hyundai’s explanation for the alleged differences was credible and that, in any event, Hyundai had sufficiently substantiated its reporting to Commerce. See Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyundai at 5-6, 17. The Court finds no reason to disturb Commerce’s finding on this issue. In light of Commerce’s general finding that Hyundai’s data, as reported, is accurate, the fact that Hyundai made distinct representa*1180tions to another agency, by itself, is not sufficient to call into question Hyundai’s data or to warrant an application of facts available or AFA.
As to Plaintiffs claim that discrepancies in expenses reported to Commerce regarding the two selected transactions resulted in an improperly inflated gross unit price, the Court considers whether these claims were exhausted below. “[T]he Court of International Trade shall, where appropriate, reqúire the exhaustion of administrative remedies.” 28 U.S.C. § 2637(d). Exhaustion of administrative" remedies is a doctrine that holds “that no one is entitled to judicial relief for a' supposed or threatened injury until the prescribed administrative remedy has been exhausted.” Consol Bearings Co. v. United States, 348 F.3d 997, 1003 (Fed. Cir. 2003) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). Commerce regulations require in order to preserve claims for appeal that parties raise all arguments before it in their case briefs. See 19 CFR § 351.309.33 This has been confirmed by the Federal Circuit. See Qingdao Sea-Line Trading Co. Ltd. v. U.S., 766 F.3d 1378, 1388 (Fed. Cir. 2014) (Commerce regulations require presentation of all issues and arguments in, a party’s administrative case brief); Dorbest Ltd v. United States, 604 F.3d 1363, 1375 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (insufficient for party to have raised an issue in a footnote in the rebuttal brief or during the ministerial comment period when the issue was not raised in the party’s case brief). Issues not raised before the agency in case and rebuttal briefs are waived for failure to exhaust and cannot be raised on appeal before the CIT.34 28 U.S.C. § 2637(d). There are exceptions to the requirement of exhaustion, to be applied at the court’s discretion, but none of the exceptions apply here.35
ABB argues that its claim that overstated freight costs for two selected transactions 36 were included in gross unit prices as reported to Commerce was appropriately raised during the administrative proceeding. PL’s Reply at 15. In its Reply, ABB cites to its case brief as proof that it had raised this issue during the administrative proceeding; however a close review of ABB’s own citation shows that ABB only made a generalized claim regarding Hyundai’s allegedly inconsistent reporting to Commerce and to another agency.37 See PL’s Reply at 15-16; Pet’rs *1181Case Br. Regarding Hyundai (“ABB Case Br.”) at 12-13, ECF No. 78-3; P.R. 245. ABB’s case brief does not make the argument that for the selected transactions Hyundai also reported improperly marked up expenses that were passed on in the gross unit price reported to Commerce. The Federal Circuit, has confirmed that in order to exhaust remedies, parties must raise all issues and arguments in briefing before the agency. See Dorbest, 604 F.3d at 1375; Qingdao Sear-Line Trading Co. Ltd., 766 F.3d at 1388. Arguing that there were discrepancies in data reported to two different agencies related to two sales observations, particularly when there is. an independent rationale for those discrepancies, .is. not the same as arguing that improperly marked up expenses were included in the calculation of gross unit price. The Court, therefore, is persuaded that ABB failed to exhaust this claim during the administrative proceeding because merely bringing up a general issue does not serve to “exhaust[ ] all specific issues under that general umbrella.” Trust Chem Co. Ltd. v. United States, 35 C.I.T. -, -, 791 F.Supp.2d 1257, 1268 n. 27 (2011) (citing Gerber Food (Yunnan) Co. v. United States, 33 C.I.T. 186, 195, 601 F.Supp.2d 1370, 1379 (2009)). Further, the Court finds that a discretionary exception to ¡exhaustion is not warranted in this case.
B. Sequencing
ABB argues that there were other inconsistencies in Hyundai’s reporting, specifically, the sequencing of documents provided by Hyundai to another agency as part of the representations Hyundai made to the other agency related to a third selected transaction.38 ABB alleges that for the third selected transaction the HHI/Hyundai sales contract is dated after the date of the commercial invoice and the date of entry to the United. States.39 Pi’s MJAR at 46. ABB further notes that .the same/similar document sequencing problem also applies to certain other U.S. observations.40 Id. Defendant acknowledges this issue was raised during the proceeding but avers that Commerce made a reasonable determination that ABB’s alleged discrepancies “concerning a subset of Hyundai’s U.S. sales did not outweigh the remaining record of evidence indicating that Hyundai’s reported data are reliable.” Def.’s Resp. at 31.
■ The Court ■ cannot, agree that Commerce’s determination was based on substantial evidence. In the Proprietary Issues and Decision Memo for Hyundai, Commerce acknowledged that'Hyundai did not address the sequencing .of.documents, but concluded that this was an issue that normally would have- been .resolved through supplemental questionnaires. Proprietary I & D Mem. — Hyundai at 12. Such supplemental questionnaires, however, were never sent and, therefore, Hyundai never explained these discrepancies.41 Id. Similarly, with respect to the third selected transaction, Commerce noted that Hyundai did not address the discrepancy but also acknowledged that Commérce did not ask Hyundai to provide further information, even though ABB had raised similar concerns for additional sales observa*1182tions.42 Id. at 15. While Defendant argues that Commerce made a reasonable finding that Hyundai’s reported data is reliable regardless of the discrepancies in sequencing, Defendant’s supporting citations point to a separate finding that AFA is not warranted.43 See Defi’s Resp. at 31. Thus, even this statement is unsupported by the record. Neither Commerce nor Defendant-Intervenor offered any further explanation in‘briefing to this Court or during oral argument.
In light of Commerce’s apparent recognition that questions remain as to Hyundai’s reported data for the above sales, and no clear statement or explanation from Commerce whether Hyundai’s reported data is sufficient and reliable regardless of this discrepancy, the Court cannot find that Commerce’s decision to rely on these documents without further query or explanation is supported by substantial evidence. Therefore, the Court remands the issue of discrepancies in sequencing for the third selected transaction and the related ■U.S. observations,44 so that Commerce may further investigate and/or explain its conclusion.
C. Commerce’s Decision not to Apply Facts Available or AFA
ABB argues that, based on the alleged discrepancies noted above, Hyundai’s data was sufficiently unreliable to “necessitat[e] application of adverse facts available.” PL’s MJAR at 39. Defendant argues that Commerce’s decision not to apply AFA was a proper exercise of discretion and not warranted under law. Def.’s Resp. at 31-32. In light of the Court’s conclusion on the sequencing of documents (above), the Court does not reach this issue at this time.
III. Home Market Commission Offset for Hyosung and Hyundai
ABB argues that Commerce erred in granting Hyundai and Hyosung a home market commission offset related to commissions on sales made in the United States. According to ABB, Hyundai and Hyosung incurred these commissions “inside” the United States. Because they were incurred inside the United States, ABB argues these commissions should be deducted from constructed export price (“CEP”) under the statute and Hyundai and Hyosung should not receive a commission offset to normal value (“NV”). PL’s MJAR at 48. Defendant argues that ABB has waived any challenge to1 the commission offsets because it failed to exhaust its administrative remedies before Commerce.45 Defendant asserts that Commerce indicated its intention to grant the commission offsets in the Preliminary Results and *1183ABB did not challenge this decision in its case briefs before the agency. Defi’s Resp. at 33-34 (citing Prelim. Mem.-Hyosung at 13). ABB replies that it timely raised the issue because Commerce announced changes to its treatment of U.S. commissions in both the Amended Final Results and the Second Amended Final Results issued following the publication of the Final Results. PL’s Reply at 19.
The statute directs Commerce to deduct from the price used to establish CEP “commissions for selling the subject merchandise in the United States,” 19 U.S.C. § 1677a(d)(l)(A), and the- profit allocated to such commissions, 19 U.S.C. § 1677a(d)(3). Commerce claims that its practice has been to recognize two types of commissions paid on U.S. sales: (i) commissions incurred inside the United States, for which Commerce deducts the commission expenses from the price used to establish CEP, and (ii) commissions incurred outside the United States, for which Commerce deducts the, commission expenses from the price used to establish CEP and offsets these deductions in the home market. See Def.’s Resp. at 32-33; see also 19 U.S.C. § 1677a(d); 19 U.S.C. § 1677b(7). Commerce may make a “commission' offset” in certain cases when a commission is paid in relationship to the U.S. sale, but not the comparison market sales. See 19 C.F.R. § 351.410(e).
Defendant argues that Commerce made its “methodological decision to provide a home market commission offset in the Preliminary Results.” Def.’s Resp. at 32, 34. Defendant claims that Commerce determined that “Hyosung and Hyundai incurred their commissions outside of the United States and, therefore, that a commission offset was warranted.” Def.’s Resp. at 33 (citing Prelim. Mem.—Hyundai at 13) (emphasis added). However, the Preliminary Analysis Memo for Hyundai cited by Defendant does not support the Defendant’s assertion. In fact, the memo concludes quite the opposite, stating, that “while these [commission and other] expenses were incurred in the United States, we note that the sale was made prior to importation.” Prelim. Mem.—Hyundai at 10,. 13 (emphasis added). Moreover, the cited document is devoid of any reference to a commission offset, whether • it was being granted or denied. Id. at 13. Instead, the document discusses the calculation of the CEP offset, a distinct adjustment, associating it with the difference in the level of trade and omitting any reference to commissions. Id. Therein, Commerce also stated that “we are not including commission, [... ] and other related expenses as “CEP ‘Other’ Expenses.” Id. at 10.
In the margin calculation program accompanying the Second Amended Final Results, Commerce indicates that the field “CEPOTHER” would normally include “Any other CEP (incurred in the U.S.) commissions [... ],” however, Commerce appears ’to have excluded U.S. commissions from this field, suggesting that Commerce treated them as if they were incurred outside the United States. Margin Calculation Program—Sec. Am. Final—Hyundai (June 2015) at 38, ECF No. 82-6; C.R. 581. Similarly, the U.S. commissions field is set to equal the reported commissions (“USCOMM = COMMU”), with the description for this field indicating that “All commissions on EP sales, and those on CEP sales incurred outside of the U.S. [...] Do NOT include commissions on CEP sales incurred in the U.S. here; instead include these in CEPSELL.” Id. Again, it appears that Commerce treated the commissions as having been incurred outside of the United States. Thus, Commerce’s treatment of U.S. commissions in the margin calculation program is inconsistent with its characterization of those com*1184missions in the Second Amended Final Results.
While the purpose of the exhaustion doctrine is to “allow[ ] the agency to apply its expertise, rectify administrative mistakes, and compile a record adequate for judicial review — advancing the twin purposes ■ of protecting administrative agency authority and promoting judicial efficiency,” - Carpenter Tech. Corp. v. United States, 30 C.I.T. 1373, 1374-75, 452 F.Supp.2d 1344, 1846 (2006) (citing Woodford v. Ngo, 548 U.S. 81, 88-90, 126 S.Ct. 2378, 165 L.Ed.2d 368 (2006)), the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has held that the application of exhaustion principles in trade cases is exercised with a measure of discretion by the Court. See, e.g., Corus Staal, 502 F.3d at 1381; Norsk Hydro Canada, Inc. v. United States, 472 F.3d 1347, 1356 n.17 (Fed. Cir. 2006); Consol. Bearings, 348 F.3d at 1003.
In this case, ABB did not exhaust its administrative remedies. ABB’s administrative case and rebuttal briefs do not make arguments about the treatment of commissions or whether a commission offset was granted, and ABB does not provide any citations in its briefing to this Court that would show that ABB made this argument to Commerce before, the issuance of the Final Results. Despite Commerce’s general policy with respect to the treatment of U.S. commissions incurred inside and outside the United States, the Preliminary Analysis Memo indicates that Commerce was diverging from that, policy. See Prelim, Mem.—Hyundai at 10, 13. Nevertheless, Commerce did not discuss the implications of this divergence on whether it would provide a commission offset in this case. The Court finds that it is not appropriate to require ABB to have exhausted its administrative remedies in this case when Commerce failed to adequately address its treatment of commission offsets in the preliminary determination,.'Such > notice was necessary-in this particular case because Commerce indicated that it was not treating the U.S. commissions in accordance with its normal practice, but' it did not explain the extent of its different treatment.
The Court will remand this issue to Commerce for further clarification. Upon remand, Commerce is to explain its treatment of the respondents’ U.S. commissions, the record basis for such treatment, whether such U.S. commissions result in the granting of commission offsets, and the legal and factual basis for the granting or denial of the commission offsets.
CONCLUSION
In accordance with the foregoing, it is hereby
ORDERED that Commerce’s Final Determination is remanded to Commerce to further address the sequencing of certain of Hyundai’s documents in the record, as set forth in Discussion Section II.B' above; and it is further
ORDERED that the Court defers ruling on the issue of whether Commerce should have applied facts available or AFA in calculating Hyundai’s dumping margin with respect to the discrepancies in the sequencing of Hyundai’s documents alleged by ABB during the administrative proceeding; and it is further
ORDERED that Commerce’s Final Determination is remanded to Commerce to further explain its treatment of the respondents’ U.S. commissions, the record basis for such treatment, whether such U.S. commissions result in the granting of commission offsets, and the legal and factual basis for the granting or denial of the commission offsets,, as set. forth in Discussion Section III above; and it is further

. The First Amended Final Results were published on May 6, 2015, prior to the issuance of this order, as a result of an inadvertent error by Defendant, United States. See Def.’s Mot. for Leave, Out of Time, for the Dep’t of Commerce to Consider Ministerial Error Allegations and, if Necessary, to Publish Am. Final Results, ECF No. 23 at 2-3.
. All citations to the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, are to Title 19 of the U.S. Code, 2012 edition.
. 19 U.S.C. § 1677e(a) provides that Commerce may use "facts otherwise available” in reaching the applicable determination if necessary information is not on the record or an interested party withholds information that has been requested, fails to .provide such information in a timely manner, significantly impedes the proceeding, or provides information that cannot be verified. Subsection (b) further provides that Commerce may use an adverse inference in selecting from among the facts otherwise available if the interested par- . ty failed to cooperate by not acting to the best of its ability. See also 19 C.F.R. § 351,308.
. During the LFTV Investigation Commerce had “instructed Hyosung to report sales and expense data for POI sales that may not have shipped as of December 31, 2011” even if actual costs and expenses had yet to be finalized. I &D Mem. at 15. At that time, Hyosung indicated that variations’would exist between the estimated and actual data, and Commerce *1169"understoodf ]' [that] the estimated data and initial gross-unit prices reported for its un-shipped sales would need to1 be updated to reflect actual data for when these sales shipped during the first administrative . review.” Id, at 15. As expected, the data Hyo-sung submitted for the first administrative review “differed from the data in the LFTV investigation in certain instances.” Id. at 15-16,
. This transaction was identified in Hyosung’s database ,as SEQU [[]]. Pl.’s-MIAR at 19.
. ABB specifically takes issue with Hyosung’s claims that the change in price is attributable to [[]]. Pl.’s MJAR at 19-22; Pi’s Reply at 3-5.
. This second selected transaction is identified in Hyosung’s sales database as SEQU [[]]. Pl.'s MJAR at 22.
. Reported to [[]] or in Hyosung's [[]]. See Pl.’s MJAR at 30-31.
., Defendant also argues that ABB does not use Hyosung’s reported revenue in its analysis, but rather, relies on a mistaken estimate of the freight revenue that Hyosung provided in one of its questionnaire responses. Def.'s Resp. at 17-18. Further, ABB used a date-of-sale exchange rate to convert Hyosung’s reported figure to U.S. dollars, when the data Hyosung reported to Commerce was itself a converted figured because the freight provider had billed Hyosung in U.S. dollars and Hyosung had not been requested to provide (nor had it provided) the exchange rate it had used to convert the figure into Korean currency before reporting it to Commerce. Id. Thus, ABB’s exchange rate adjustments based were upon faulty assumptions.
. Parties filed multiple excerpts from the Hyosung July 2 SQR in the CJA and PJA (as well as in separate docket filings as ECF Nos. 82-22 — 82-24, 82-26 — 82-28). Accordingly, where the Court short cites to the Hyosung July 2 SQR it will continue to include the relevant ECF or CJA/PJA numbers.
. The sale in question was finalized as "[[]]." Hyosung July 3 SQR, Ex. S-ll at JA 400460, CJA, Doc. 60; PJA, Doc. 60.
. This third selected transaction is identified in Hyosung’s sales database as SEQU [[]]. See Pl.’s MJAR at 25.
. Defendant also argues that ABB’s claim is waived for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. Def.'s Resp. at 19. ABB replies that its.claim regarding the third selected transaction is simply a different formulation of the same question: whether expenses deducted from gross unit price were the same as those used in the build-up of gross unit price. Pl.’s Reply at 9 n.l. The Court finds that ABB timely raised the issue in the administrative proceeding as demonstrated by Defendant's citations to the Issues and Decision Memo in support of its own position that Commerce's *1173finding on this matter is supported by the record. See Def.’s Resp. at 19-20; see also I & D Mem. at 18-21.
. The agency in question is [[]]. Pl.’s MJAR at 27-30.
. Commerce examined this issue with regard to SEQU [[ ]], Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 4-6, and ABB specifically calls out SEQU [[]] as illustrative examples, Pl.’s MJAR at 29-30. Here ABB alleges that Hyo-*1174sung reported [[]] ocean freight in the U.S sales listing to Commerce than it did to [[ ]]. See Pl.’s MJAR at 29-30.
. These include SEQU [[]]. Commerce identifies these specific sales as examples where Hyosung provided source documentation demonstrating the accuracy of its reporting of ocean freight expenses [[]]". See Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 5-6.
. Commerce reviewed corroborating documentation relating to SEQU [[ ]] and concluded that Hyosung had "accurately reported and substantiated its reported ocean freight amounts" and that specifically for SEQU [[]] "Hyosung provided complete source documentation supporting its reported ocean freight expenses for that sale.” Proprietary I & D Mem.—Hyosung at 6 & n. 27 (citing Hyosung Jan. 13 SQR at Ex. C-13) (emphasis omitted).
.According to Commerce,
while we are accepting Hyosung’s reporting of certain expenses for purposes of these preliminary results, going forward, the Department expects Hyosung to be consistent with regard to its reporting of installation and warranty expenses between the home and U.S. markets. Additionally, the Department expects Hyosung to report expenses related to the movement of existing LPTs consistently, and on a transaction-specific basis, in both the home and U.S. markets going forward.
Prelim. Mem. — Hyosung at 8.
. Pursuant to 19 C.F.R. § 351.410(c), "Direct selling expenses’ are expenses, such as commissions, credit expenses, guarantees, and warranties, that result from, and bear a direct relationship to, the particular sale in question.”
. Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1677b(f)(l)(A), “costs shall normally be calculated based on the records of the exporter or producer of the merchandise, if such records are kept in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles of the exporting country ... and reasonably reflect the costs associated with the production and sale of the merchandise.”
.According to Hyosung,
based on agreements with the U,S. customer, HICO America is sometimes responsible for the installation of LPTs at the U.S. customer’s designated location. [[]] HICO America [[]]. Hyosung reports the installation costs it incurred on a transaction-specific basis.
Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR at C-38, JA 100713. However, in some cases,
At the customer’s request, HICO America will dispatch [[]] Although HICO America incurs costs for the salary and travel expenses of the [[ ]] of the installation process, HICO America does not track these expenses by project number in its accounting records.
See Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at 41, Consequently, these U.S. installation expenses were reported as indirect selling expenses.
. Commerce also rejected ABB’s reliance on a comparison of the reported installation expenses with the estimates used to negotiate Hyosung’s commission payments. As discussed above, Commerce reasonably relied on the actual expenses as reported and did not require a reconciliation with estimated expenses used to negotiate commission agreements. I & D Mem. at 23.
. Commerce found that Hyosung accurately reported and substantiated its reported installation expenses through "source documentation demonstrating the accuracy of its reporting of installation expenses 'to the Department.” I & D Mem. at 23 & n.105 (citing Hyosung Jan. 13 CQR at Ex. C-24; Hyosung Apr. 10 SQR at S-29).
. In addition to making an overarching argument, ABB identifies two selected.transactions to illustrate its claim. These are SEQU [[]] and [[]] respectively. See, e.g., PL’s MJAR at 37.
. See supra noté 27.
.The agency in question is [[]]. ABB relies on a third selected transaction, SEQU [[ 33, as . an illustration, but notes that similar sequencing issues exist for SEQU [[]], Pl.'s MJAR at 46..
. ABB argues that Hyundai [[]] Pl.’s MJAR at 38.
. Hyundai responded to over 11 questionnaires and supplemental questionnaires. Proprietary I & D Mem. — Hyundai at 17.
. To illustrate its overarching argument, ABB points to two selected transactions and argues that, for these transactions, Hyundai reported higher [[]] than to Commerce. Pl.’s MJAR at 44. In its brief to this Court, ABB argues that for one selected transaction, SEQU [[ ]], Hyundai gave the other agency a commercial invoice for [[ ]] than the amount it reported to Commerce. Id. at 44. Defendant-Intervenor Hyundai explains to the Court that this difference is attributable to the fact that Commerce "required Hyundai to report the amount of the expense that it incurred from the third-party vendors” and not the amount that HHI charged to Hyundai. Conf. Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. and Hyundai Corp. USA's Resp. to Pl.’s Mem. in *1179Supp. of its R. 56.2 Mot. For J. on the Agency R. (“Hyundai Resp.”) at 12, ECF 62. Further, Hyundai claims that the alleged differences were resolved by [[ ]] and that ABB does not compare the actual expense documentation submitted to [[ ]] in Hyundai’s later representations (which are part of the record for this administrative review) in making this allegation anew. Id.
ABB makes a similar allegation with respect to a second selected transaction, SEQU [[]], that Hyundai reported [[]] import-related charges for [[ ]] to [[ ]] than to Commerce, but ABB does not further develop this argument before the Court and neither Defendant nor Defendant-Intervenor Hyundai provide a detailed response. See Pl.’s MJAR at 43-44; Def.’s Resp. at 27-30; see also Hyundai Resp. at 12 (noting, as with SEQU [[]], that ABB compares third-party invoices rather than direct expense documentation Hyundai provided to Commerce and that the alleged differences were resolved by the prior disclosures). The Court again looks to its standard of review for Commerce final determinations. Here, Plaintiffs allegations continue to rest on differences that are rooted in Hyundai’s reporting to another agency, that have been addressed by Commerce in the Final Results and by this Court, and that do not rise above the level of allegations lacking substantiating documentation. ABB does not offer any further evidence to the Court supporting its claim that Hyundai’s data in this regard is unreliable and does not provide an argument for why an invoice between Hyundai and HHI (two affiliated parties) should be given more weight in contrast to the third party invoice that represents the actual [[ ]] expense paid by Hyundai to the [[ ]]. Thus, the Court is satisfied that Commerce’s conclusion that Hyundai sufficiently substantiated its reporting to the Department is based on substantial evidence on the record.
. See 19 C.F.R. § 351.309(c)(2) ("The case brief must present all arguments that continue in the submitter’s view to be relevant to the Secretary’s final determination or final results, including any arguments presented before the date of publication of the preliminary determination or preliminary results.”); see also 19 C.F.R. § 351.309(d)(2) ("The rebuttal brief may respond only to arguments raised in case briefs and should identify the ' arguments to which it is responding.”)
. Parties are able to raise ministerial errors with the Department if such errors appear in the Final Results. See 19 C.F.R. 351.224(e).
. There is no exhaustive list of exceptions. Previously enumerated exceptions include futility, an intervening court decision such that the new interpretation would impact the agency’s actions, pure question of law, or when plaintiff had no reason to believe the agency would not follow established precedent. See Luoyang Bearing Factory v. United States, 26 C.I.T. 1156, 1186, n.26, 240 F.Supp.2d 1268, 1297 n.26 (2002) (collecting cases). The Court has also found exceptions to exhaustion when a private party is denied access to critical information at a time when its case brief is due or when requiring exhaustion is burdensome such that it would result in "undue prejudice to subsequent assertion of a court action.” See Corns Staal BV v. United States, 502 F.3d 1370, 1381 (Fed. Cir. 2007) (citation omitted).

. In sections addressing ABB’s arguments that Commerce should apply AFA, Commerce noted thát the criteria for an application of AFA had not been met because Hyundai had cooperated to the best of its ability and provided satisfactory explanations to Commerce's questions, including by responding to questionnaires.

. SEQU[[]].
. Hyundai agrees that ABB failed to raise the commission offset issue after the Prelimi-naty Results and that Commerce’s granting of the commission offset is not a ministerial error. Hyundai asserts that granting the commission offset was specifically intended and referenced in the Preliminary Analysis Memo for Hyundai. Hyundai Resp. at 14-16; see also Prelim. Mem.—Hyosung at 13.
