Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Jones can deposit $5,000 at the end of each six-month cycle for the next 12 years.

Return at an average pace of 8%

Now,

               PV                                              0                  0

              PMT                                         -5000        -5000

                N                                              24               24

                IR                                              4%              4%

               FV                                   $195,413.02    $203,229.54

Semiannual means twice a year.

Value of the investment after 12 years will be $ 12816.5

Since, interest is compounded semiannually.

So, number of half yearly in 12 years, n = 24

Rate per half yearly, r = 8/2 = 4 %

Principal amount (P)= $5000

We know that ,

                    [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{100} )^{n}\\\\A=5000(1+\frac{4}{100} )^{24}\\\\Amount=12816.5[/tex]$

Therefore, Value of the investment after 12 years will be $ 12816.5
