Equity reconciliation

So I'm working through a 3 statement model that projects out over 5 years. I had to do a model in the interview today and he gave me another model to take home and complete to discuss tomorrow AM. I have completed forecasting out the AR and Inventory but I'm lost on how to balance out the equity portion as my "check" is like $3k off. Can someone please help me figure this out and then explain to me how they did this? I'm not sure what to even google to find out how to finish this thing.

Also, the interviewer told me that forecasting out the non-cash items (you'll see if you open the file) is not important. Would you let me know your thoughts on this too?

I would really appreciate the help, this is the furthest I've ever gotten in an IB interview!!
