2. The district court fined appellant $7,000 for the burglary, the minimum fine under Minn. Stat. § 609.101, subd. 4 (1992), and $300 for the sexual assault, the minimum *479 fine under Minn. Stat. § 609.101, subd. 2(2) (1992). The court also ordered restitution. Appellant argues that the court erred in imposing the fines without making a determination of appellant’s ability to pay. The court, however, imposed the minimum fines allowed under the statute. There is no requirement to base such fines on ability to pay. The court is required to make findings as to such consideration only if the court decides to reduce the amount of the minimum fine. Minn. Stat. § 609.101, subd. 6 (Supp.1993).
