Less Sales                            (44,000)

Ending Inventory                    4,000

Absorption Costing Calcs

Variable Manufacturing Costs

Direct materials                         $3,360,000.00

Direct labor                                 $1,344,000.00

Variable manufacturing cost        $816,000.00

Fixed manufacturing cost            $528,000.00

Total                                           $6,048,000.00

Ending Inventory =  $6,048,000.00 × 4,000 / 48,000

                            =   $504,000
