Create calculated column based on text and probability%

Trying to create a calculated column to show the expected/probable revenue impact from a pipeline.

 

This means the column should do a function as:

If Probability = "10% - StageA" then 0.1*"Estimated revenue", 

If Probability = "30% - StageB" then 0.3*"Estimated revenue",

If Probability = "95% - StageC" then 0.95*"Estimated revenue",

 

How do I do that?

@MrKwanorama ,
Is this your expectation?

Probable revenue = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    'Tablename'[Probability] = "10% - StageA", 0.1*'Tablename'[Estimated revenue],
    'Tablename'[Probability] = "30% - StageB", 0.3*'Tablename'[Estimated revenue],
    'Tablename'[Probability] = "95% - StageC", 0.95*'Tablename'[Estimated revenue],
    BLANK()
)

Thanks,

Hi sorry - accepted too soon. 

Gives me:

Function 'SWITCH' does not support comparing values of type True/False with values of type number. 

 

I have the Estimated Revenue as Decimal Number and Probability as Text.

Any suggestion?
