| Year | Probable Return | Deviation ( Probable Return- Expected Return) | Deviation Squared |
| 2001 | 10 | 3.75 | 14.06 |
| 2002 | -5 | -11.25 | 126.56 |
| 2003 | 0 | -6.25 | 39.06 |
| 2004 | 20 | 13.75 | 189.06 |
| Sum of Deviation Squared | 368.75 |
Variance = Sum of Deviation Squared / Number of Periods
=368.75 / 4
