The manufacturer's invoice value remained the proper starting point because the Department did not show strong and cogent reasons to discard it, and its relied-upon imports were not proved to be at the same commercial level, in substantially the same quantity, or sufficiently contemporaneous. Material inconsistencies in thickness, quantity, and currency conversion also undermined the comparables, and the requirements for identical goods under Rule 5 were not established.
