Default Stupid Pot Odds Question

Alright fellas or gals,

I know this is a stupid question, but I need to clear it up in my head. When calculating pot odds do you include the money you put in into the amount that you profit if you win?

Example:

Flop: Pot = 10, You have 100 left, He has 60 left.
He bets 30, You will win 40% of the time.

Would it be correct to to move him allin because:

eq[1]: .40(10 + 30(his bet) + 60(your raise) + 30(his call)) + .60(-60(your raise)) = 16 EV

or is it..

eq[2]: .40( 70(profit) ) + .6(-60) = -8 EV

I always though it was equation 2..You only factor in the PROFIT you would make.
