An official may accept a bribe of amount \(B\) million naira. The probability of being caught is \(p = 0.02 + 0.001B\). If caught, the official pays a fine equal to five times the bribe and incurs an additional non‑monetary cost valued at \(\text{₦}10\) million. The expected net gain from the bribe is therefore \(G(B) = (1-p)B - p(5B + 10)\). What bribe amount (in million naira), rounded to the nearest whole million, maximizes the expected net gain?
