975,000

NPV = 800,000 / (1.14) + 350,000 / (1.14)2 + 680,000 / (1.14)4 +975,000 / (1.14)5 - 1,500,000

= 1,880,067.1 - 1,500,000

= 380,067.07

Return        = (380,067.0/1,500,000) * 100         

                   = 25.337% > 12% therefore invest.

NB: By assuming that the salvage will be realized.
