We use the following formula
P = PMT[((1 + r)^n - 1) / r], where P is the future value, r is interest rate, n is number of periods over which payments are made and PMT is amount of each payment, therefore
25000 = PMT[((1 + .04)^10 - 1) / .04], note that n = 5*2
25000 = PMT(12.006107125)
PMT = 25000 / (12.006107125) = 2082.273607899 approx $2082.27
each payment is $2082.27

= number of years
= number of times compounded
= rate of interest
= principle
= amount after years

I found the principle, which is the original
amount of the investment

I'm having trouble also with the words:
"find the periodic payment" Is the period twice a year
over 5 years? That would be payments, so
The periodic payment ( 10 payments ) would be $449.13
DEFINITELY get another opinion on this.
The wording is vague, I think
