Please help me understand when to include SG in the Pounds Equation versus not

Most of the time, I see the Pounds Equation solved without SG:

lbs = Volume * Concentration * 8.34

However, I was taught the equation with SG in it:

lbs = Volume * Concentration * 8.34 * SG

Does someone have a clear explanation of when to include SG in the equation versus not? I can't seem to find explicit discussion about this online. Even engineers at my company are not sure what the answer is.

Thank you!
