Hi kent-culpepper ,
You can create a calculated column or measure as below to get it, please find the details in the attachment.
Create a calculated column:
FMV Prior = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[FMV] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Investment] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Investment] ) && 'Table'[Quarter] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Quarter] ) - 1 ) )Create a measure:
Measure = VAR _investment = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Investment] ) VAR _qtr = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Quarter] ) RETURN CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[FMV] ), FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Investment] = _investment && 'Table'[Quarter] = _qtr - 1 ) )In addition, you can refer the following links to achieve it in Power Query Editor.

Fast and easy way to reference previous or next rows in Power Query or Power BI
