To evaluate the proceeds  we use the formula given by:
A=P(1+r)^t
where:
A=future value
P=principle
r=rate
t=time
from the question:
P=$1000, r=0.12, t=120/30=4 months=1/3 years
hence plugging the value in the formula and solving we obtain:
A=1000(1+0.12)^1/3
A=1038.5
Therefore the proceeds will be:
1038.5-1000
=$38.5

Answer:

Proceeds = $ 959.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal = $1000

Interest = 12%

Time = 120 days = 0.33 years

n = number of times the interest rate is compounded in one year

⇒ n = 12

[tex]\text{Compound Interest = }Principal\times (1+\frac{rate}{100\times n})^{n\cdot t}\\\\\text{Compound Interest = }1000\times (1+\frac{12}{12\times 100})^{12\times 0.33}\\\\\bf\implies \textbf{Compound Interest = }\$1040.04[/tex]

Now, Interest = Compound Interest - Principal

⇒ Interest = 1040.04 - 1000

                 = $ 40.04

And the Proceeds are = Principal - Interest

                                           = 1000 - 40.04

                                          = $ 959.96
