• Defines the dutiable value of an imported article subject to an ad valorem rate of duty as:
    - The transaction value or price of the same, like or similar articles, as bought and sold or offered for sale freely in the usual wholesale quantities in the ordinary course of trade in the principal markets of the exporting country on the date of exportation to the Philippines (excluding internal excise taxes to be remitted or rebated), including the value of all containers, coverings and/or packings, and all other expenses, costs and charges incident to placing the article in a condition ready for shipment to the Philippines, and freight as well as insurance premium covering the transportation of such article to the port of entry in the Philippines.

(Sec. 1)
    - If the dutiable value cannot be ascertained due to failure of the importer to produce documents, or if there is a reasonable doubt as to the dutiable value declared in the entry, it shall be the domestic wholesale selling price of such similar article in Manila or other principal markets in the Philippines on the date the duty becomes payable, minus:
        a) Twenty-five (25) per cent thereof for expenses and profits; and
