First, we need to calculate the exponentiation. We have 2^3 which is equal to 8 and 2^4 which is equal to 16.

Next, we carry out the division. We have 4 ÷ 2 which equals 2.

Now we can perform the addition and subtraction in the order they appear from left to right.

12 - 8 + 2 + 16

= 4 + 2 + 16

= 6 + 16

= 22

Therefore, the simplified expression is 22.
