    a. Accounts receivable increased $14,000 or 25% during 2012.

    Explanation:

    The horizontal analysis of Bloom's will compare each account with the same account of a base previous year.

    The 2012 accounts receivables will be compared with the 2011 accounts receivable.

    The nominal increase: 70,000 - 56,000 = 14,000

    The percent increase: 14,000/56,000 = 0.25

    So the account receivable increases by 14,000 which is 25% of the 011 of the 2011 AR
