It doesn't mention the year over year or the seasonality in the report but since bookkeeping is mentioned will the numbers drop after 4/15?

No need for a micriwave popper...just use a brown paper bag.  Use about 1/3 c of pop corn, fold the top twice (don't staple or tape) put in the microwave upright and run untial popping slows to a couple per second.   Search google for how to use a paper bag if you think you need more info.
