2. There is a 39% chance that the amount of oil in a prospective field is 7 million barrels and a 61% chance of 15 million barrels. If the actual amount of oil is 7 million barrels, the present value of the cash flows from drilling will be $2.5 million. If the amount is 15 million barrels, the present value will be $7 million. The cost to drill the well is $5.5 million. Suppose, a test that costs $450,000 can verify the amount of oil under the ground, is it worth paying for the test?

Please enter the full number as your answer. (i.e., 10,000,000 and NOT 10 million)
