(b) if the requirements of subregulation 2.02(1) are satisfied—must count all products that satisfy those requirements; and
(c) if the requirements of subregulation 2.02(2) are satisfied—must count all products that satisfy those requirements; and
(d) if the requirements of subregulation 2.02(3) are satisfied—must count all products that satisfy those requirements; and
(e) if the requirements of subregulation 2.02(2) are satisfied but the requirements of subregulation 2.02(3) are not satisfied—must count:
(i) all products that satisfy the requirements of subregulation 2.02(2); and
(ii) all computer parts or peripherals imported or manufactured by the liable party in the previous financial year; and
(f) if the requirements of subregulation 2.02(3) are satisfied but the requirements of subregulation 2.02(2) are not satisfied—must count:
(i) all products that satisfy the requirements of subregulation 2.02(3); and

However:
(a) if a person imports 6 000 televisions and 2 000 computers (i.e. less than the number of computers required in subregulation 2.02(2)) in a financial year, only the televisions must be counted when working out the import or manufacture share; and
(b) if a person imports 7 000 computers and 14 000 computer parts or peripherals (i.e. less than the number of computer parts or peripherals required in subregulation 2.02(3)), all of those products must be counted when working out the import or manufacture share; and
(c) if a person imports 17 000 computer parts or peripherals and 4 000 computers (i.e. less than the number of computers required in subregulation 2.02(2)), all of those products must be counted when working out the import or manufacture share.
