Wallace typically uses no current liabilities other than accounts payable. Common stock amounted to $465,000 in 2021, and retained earnings were $270,000. Wallace has arranged to sell $190,000 of new common stock in 2022 to meet some of its financing needs.

The Tony Hawk Skate Park was built in early 2021. The construction was financed by a $3,000,000, 7% note due in 6 years, with payments of $51,147 required each month. The first year has not been as profitable as hoped. The discussion at the executive board meeting at the end of 2021 focused on the potential need to obtain additional financing. However, board members are concerned that the company's debt level at the end of 2021 will make the company appear too risky to additional lenders. The balance of the note at the end of 2021 is $2,583,026. By the end of 2022, the 12 monthly payments will reduce the balance by an additional $447116. Separate from the note, the company has the following amounts at the end of 2021: current assets of $3,100,000; current liabilities of $2,700,000; total equity of $4,000,000.
