I think the result from this would be exactly 0, because it's a long-form EV calc.
Excell could answer this one in a couple of minutes.
EDIT: It would not be exactly 0 because it is not weighted by the binomial distribution. If the combinatorial weights of each outcome are taken into account (which is your intent, I believe), then it is a long-form EV calc.
Without applying the binomial distribution, it is NOT related to the variance or any other meaningful statistic, AFAIK.
