Can someone help me with the maths for prospecting?

If a gem prospects for example, fel iron:

18% Blood Garnet (1-2)
18% Deep Peridot (1-2)
18% Flame Spessarite (1-2)
Etc..

How do I work out the projected prospecting value?

Lets, for the sake of argument say that:

-Fel iron costs 5g for 5 to prospect
-Each Gem sells for 1g at the AH

Do I do (1*0.18)+(1*0.18)+(1*0.18) to work out the average propsecting price?

That makes sense but it would also be useful to know:

-The maximum possible profit
-The minimum possible profit

I'm trying to make a spreadsheet that I plug current AH values into and it works out what to prospect and how much i'm likely to make (if any)
