Yes. I don't use Excel anymore so I can't tell you the Excel syntax, but here it is in TI graphing calculator syntax:
sum(seq(binompdf(10,.4,R)*(1-binomcdf(R,.25/(.25+.15),iPart(R/2))),R,1,10,1))
= .6017744346
Or as a program:
Code:
Prompt N
Input "Pa = ",A
Input "Pb = ",B
Disp sum(seq(binompdf(N,A+B,R)*(1-binomcdf(R,A/(A+B),iPart(R/2))),R,1,N,1))
