Answer:

1) accounts receiveable amount = 520,000-400,000 = 120,000 $

% increase = (120,000/400,000)x100 = 30 %

2) inventory amount = 840,000-600,000 = 240.000 $

% increase = (240,000/600,000)x100 = 40%

3) total assets amount = 3,000,000 - 2,500,000 = 500,000 $

% increase = (500,000/2,500,000)x100 = 20%
