Hello 😃
I need to create a cost breakdown where the price reduces yearly for 4 years, each year 50% of the previous year.
Ex:
The benefit1 of 100$ starts in 2018
- Cost in 2018 is 50$
- Cost in 2019 is 25$
- Cost in 2020 is 12,5$
- Cost in 2021 is 6,25$
- Cost in 2022 is 0 (because the benefit only last 4 years)
Then I need to know the sum of all benefits in each year
The data I have is the total benefit (100$ in the example) and the date on which the benefit will start counting.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello,
I need the SUM per year of all benefits to be automatized according to new data entry (considering also the future gains in the 4 years period.
Ex.
With this data entry:
I need the 50% breakdown yearly to be calculated (for 4 years since the beginning of the benefit), like in this example:
So I can have the SUM of total benefits in $ that I will have yearly
(Remembering the only data in the file is the befit and the data it started or should start)
I was able to calculate it using:
Thanks =D
hello not really sure but mind if you try this?
2019 =
var curryear = 'Project savings'[Saving]/2
var preyear = calculate( 'Project savings'[Saving]/2),previousyear(date))
return
curryear + preyear
if no then i think you should use the new offset function
Hello @Anonymous
This way works the same as the solution I found, it won't automatically calculate all the new entries for upcoming years unless I create a new column, which is not ideal for me.
I will check about offset, thanks a lot!
