Notice of penalty crazy help

[mongo]

found this on a law site:
The penalty dollar amount is usually based on the maximum amount that customs can levy under the law for counterfeit violations; they are are not based on the price actually paid for the goods, but on the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (“MSRP”) of the goods if they were genuine:

1st Offense: the penalty is equal to up to the MSRP of genuine goods
2nd (or more) Offense: the penalty is equal to twice the MSRP of genuine goods
For example, if you are importing counterfeit jeans that cost $5 each, but which have a MSRP for genuine jeans of $95, customs customs uses the $95 price in its calculation. In this example, if 100 pairs of jeans were imported, the penalty for a 1st offense is up to $9,500 (not $500). For a 2nd offense, the penalty is up to $19,000 (not $500 or $1,00).
