Please try these measure expressions. Format them as a percentage. Replace T2 with your actual table name.
Compound = VAR maxdate = MAX ( T2[Month] ) RETURN 1 + CALCULATE ( SUM ( T2[Inflation] ), ALL ( T2 ), T2[Month] <= maxdate ) Compound Quarter = VAR maxdate = MAX ( T2[Month] ) RETURN 1 + CALCULATE ( SUM ( T2[Inflation] ), ALL ( T2 ), VALUES ( T2[Quarter] ), T2[Month] <= maxdate )Pat
