The difference is due to fixed cost included in closing inventory under the absorption costing concept.

Explanation:

Production Cost - Absorption Costing

Direct materials                                $4,400,000.00

Direct labor                                       $1,760,000.00

Variable factory overhead                $1,100,000.00

Fixed factory overhead                      $660,000.00

Total                                                  $7,920,000.00

therefore,

Cost of Sales = 38,000 units/ 44,000 units x $7,920,000.00

                      = $6,840,000

Production Cost - Variable Costing

Direct materials                                $4,400,000.00

Direct labor                                       $1,760,000.00

Variable factory overhead                $1,100,000.00

Total                                                  $7,260,000.00

therefore,

Cost of Sales = 38,000 units/ 44,000 units x $7,260,000.00

                      = $6,270,000

odd consecutive integers are odd integers that follow each other. they have a difference of 2 between every two numbers. if n is an odd integer, then n, n+2, n+4 and n+6 will be odd consecutive integers. the first number in the pattern is always the variable on its own or in this case, "n". examples.
