Forgive the intrusion, but could you more experienced brewers advise me? What would you expect the estimated ABV of a beer with the final gravity of 1.010 to be, approximately? As I seem to be under a great misapprehension.

The ABV of the resulting beer with a 1.010 final gravity would depend upon the starting gravity of the beer. If you know that reading, you can use the 'pct alcohol' tool under the 'tools' drop down menu to calculate the abv of your beer.

Greetings and Welcome.
The final gravity must be subtracted from the Original gravity. The difference is used to determine the alcohol content.
Within BeerSmith, there is both a tool for this process, plus it's automatically calculated in your recipe if you log the data as you go. Any field that says "measured" is your cue to add the appropriate information. By default, there is some junk... er, "placeholder," information in these fields, already. Just replace it with your actual measurements.
