For smoothing of lagged price concessions and inclusion of sales from the U.S. Territories, should a manufacturer include the sales from the U.S. Territories in the 12 months of data for smoothing as of April 1, 2017 (going back to May 2016), or should they only include it in the smoothing only as of April 1, 2017 and prospectively?
