an average of all families with exactly
two children. A ‘‘family unit’’ should
consist of all related individuals who
live at the same address, any co-resident
unrelated children who are cared for by
the family, and any cohabiters and their
children. Using the most recent fiveyear distribution of FSCU expenditures,
the Working Group recommended that
the Census Bureau set the dollar amount
of the poverty threshold at the 33rd
percentile of the distribution of FCSU
expenditures. To account for differences
among those who rent, own a home
with a mortgage, and own a home
without a mortgage, the Working Group
recommended the Census Bureau
develop an adjustment factor for the
shelter component, to reflect differences
in expenditures among these three
groups. To account for basic
expenditures outside of FCSU, the
Working Group recommended that the
Census Bureau multiply the dollar
amount (as calculated above) by 1.2. To
define thresholds for different families,
the Working Group recommended the
use of the so-called ‘‘three-parameter
equivalence scale’’ that has been used by
the Census in recent years. The Working
Group also recommended that
thresholds be updated annually using
an updated five-year distribution of
FSCU expenditures.
The Working Group also
recommended that poverty thresholds
should be adjusted for price differences
across geographic areas. American
Community Survey (ACS) data, which is
collected annually by the Census
Bureau, appear to be the best data
currently available from which one can
create a housing price index based on
differences in rental prices of housing
across areas. Future work may provide
price data that can be used to measure
interarea price differentials on more
items than housing alone.
To determine poverty status under the
SPM, resources (income plus noncash
benefits, minus necessary expenses) are
compared to a family’s poverty
threshold (as calculated in the method
described above). If a family’s resources
are below its poverty threshold, that
family and all persons in the family are
counted as poor. The Working Group
recommended that family resources be
estimated as the sum of cash income,
plus any Federal government in-kind
benefits that families can use to meet
their FCSU. From this amount, the
Working Group recommended
subtracting taxes (or adding tax credits),
work expenses, child support paid, and
out-of-pocket medical expenses to
determine poverty status. The survey
used to make these calculations will be
the Current Population Survey’s Annual

Jkt 220001
Social and Economic Supplement, (CPS
ASEC), which is jointly sponsored by
the Census Bureau and BLS.
Work expenses have an impact on
poverty status. The Working Group
therefore recommended that the
definition of resources used to calculate
the SPM should exclude expenses
associated with commuting and child
care. For child care, the Working Group
recommended that actual expenses,
either reported on the CPS ASEC or
assigned to CPS ASEC families based on
other household surveys that collect
these data, should be used. For other
work expenses, the Working Group
recommended that the Census Bureau
investigate the advantages and
disadvantages of using actual expenses
versus an average amount for all
working adults.
To account for medical out-of-pocket
(MOOP) expenses, the Working Group
recommended that the Census Bureau
examine the reliability of questions
newly added to the CPS ASEC in 2010.
If these data are found to be reliable, the
Working Group recommended that the
Census Bureau use data from the CPS
ASEC in the calculation of family
resources. If these data are found to be
unreliable, then the Working Group
recommended that MOOP should be
assigned to CPS ASEC families and
individuals from other surveys that
collect reliable information on MOOP,
in a way that takes into account the
differences in medical expenses among
demographic groups. The Working
Group also suggested that the Census
Bureau investigate the advantages and
disadvantages of adjusting MOOP for
those who are uninsured, to reflect that
the uninsured may be paying less than
is customary because they lack health
insurance and cannot pay for health
services.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
While the Census Bureau welcomes
public comments on the approaches
described in the report of the Working
Group, the Census Bureau is
particularly interested in receiving
comments on the specific methods used
in the report, to ensure that the Census
Bureau uses best practices in developing
the SPM. Specifically, the Census
Bureau is interested in comments on:
• Methods and data sources used to
geographically adjust poverty
thresholds;
• Methods and data sources used to
adjust resources to account for child
care and other work-related expenses;
• Methods and data sources used to
adjust resources to account for medical
out-of-pocket expenses; and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On March 3, 2010, the Department of
Commerce (‘‘Department’’) issued the
preliminary results of the new shipper
review of the antidumping duty order
on wooden bedroom furniture from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’)
covering sales of subject merchandise
made by Zhejiang Tianyi Scientific &
Educational Equipment Co., Ltd.
(‘‘Zhejiang Tianyi’’) for the period
January 1, 2009 through June 30, 2009.
See Wooden Bedroom Furniture from
the People’s Republic of China:
Preliminary Results of Antidumping
Duty New Shipper Review, 75 FR 9581
(March 3, 2010). As explained in the
memorandum from the Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, the Department has
exercised its discretion to toll deadlines
for the duration of the closure of the
Federal Government from February 5,
through February 12, 2010. See
Memorandum to the Record from
Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for Import
Administration, regarding ‘‘Tolling of
Administrative Deadlines As a Result of
the Government Closure During the
Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated February 12,
2010. Thus, all deadlines in this
segment of the proceeding have been
extended by seven days. The current
deadline for the final results of this
review is currently May 24, 2010.
Extension of Time Limits for Final
Results
Section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (‘‘Act’’), and 19
CFR 351.214(i)(1) require the
Department to issue the final results in
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
a new shipper review of an antidumping
duty order 90 days after the date on
which the preliminary results are
issued. The Department may, however,
extend the deadline for completion of
the final results of a new shipper review
to 150 days if it determines that the case
is extraordinarily complicated. See
section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and 19
CFR 351.214(i)(2).
The Department finds that this new
shipper review is extraordinarily
complicated because of a recent filing
which calls into question the accuracy
and reliability of submissions in this
review. In particular, the Department
needs additional time to consider
whether the information was properly
filed and to consider any such
information. Accordingly, we are
extending the time for the completion of
the final results of this review by 60
days, from the current due date of May
24, 2010 to July 23, 2010.
Dated: May 20, 2010.
This notice is published in accordance
with section 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act and
19 CFR 351.214(i)(2).
