If you mean what value the tariff is applied to it is the value of the machine in wholesale terms when it reaches the US port. Again how the importer prices the goods after that, whether they use their old formula or simply add 25% is unknown save for Grizzly who has said it is 25% across the board, but even that could be a mental ploy, "we said 25% but we decided on 15% to be nice, don't ya love us even more now?".
Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.
Deep thought for the day:
Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.
