Answer: $112,000

Explanation:

Jimmy is able to withdraw the entire $112,000 tax-free.

This is because to be able to Withdraw tax-free, one must have deposited money in the IRA for a minimum of 5 years and the person must be at least 59.5 years of age.

Those 2 criteria are met by Jimmy who deposited for 18 years and is now aged 65.
