In reviewing the Balance Sheet, we can see ACA WSO ended the month with $940,836 in Total Assets. The previous month was $931,837, resulting in an increase of $8,999.

Our Total Cash and Cash Equivalents (Account 1000) decreased by $125.3k, mainly because we paid for two large book orders.  Prepaids increased by $86k because one large order for printing books in India was paid in advance.  Inventory Assets (Account 1400) show a net increase of $45.5k, due to the receipt of a large order of Laundry List Workbooks, less the normal sell-through of Inventory.

WSO’s Total Liabilities & Equity was $940,836 at the end of the period. This is an increase of $8,999 from the previous month. The Net Loss for the month of February is $2,480

Note that the Equity Section includes Restricted Net Assets, which was created as a result of the International Literature Scholarship Fund. The month of February is showing a balance of $7,393. Unrestricted Net Assets balance is $811,782.
