How this calculation works
Expected loss = Σ(probability_i × loss_i)
Enter the labelled inputs. Percent fields use 5 for 5%. Expected value does not predict a specific event.
A worked example
Probabilities (%): 90,10; Loss amounts: 0,10000. Expected loss: 1,000 USD.
Assumptions and limitations
Expected value does not predict a specific event. All monetary inputs must use one currency and time period unless conversion is explicit. Manual inputs only; no live prices or official rule tables.
