Incorrect Value with Date Calculation
If you give them the same date, the first measure will evaluate variable LastDay as that date, while the second measure will evaluate it as the date of the end of the previous month. So if the context of KeyDate[Date] only contains 15/01/2020, then the first measure will have VAR LastDay = 15/01/2020 and the second measure will have VAR LastDay = 31-12-2019.
In another case, if the context of KeyDate[Date] only contains 30/11/2019, then the first measure will have VAR LastDay = 30/11/2019 and the second measure will have VAR LastDay = 31-10-2019. (becasue of the -1 in your VAR statement).
