Economy Probabilty Return Probability*
Return		 Return-
Expected Return[D]		 Probability*D*D
Boom 0.63 0.214 0.13482 0.12987 0.010625717
Recession 0.37 -0.137 -0.05069 -0.22113 0.018092436
Expected Return
= Sum of Probabilty*Return		 0.08413 = 8.413% Variance
=Sum of [D^2]		 0.028718153 = 2.8718%
Standard Deviation
=Variance^1/2		 0.169464312 = 16.9464%
