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
        )

Ok so I need dax formulas to acheive  Compounded infation and quaterly inflation , right now it is calculated in excel. So what is the dax formula to acheive 99.50%, 99.70%, 100.00%,100.20% and Quaterly inflation percentage 0.00%, 0.60% and so on? The data we get is the dates, quaters and inflation and we shpould be able to calculate compound inflation and quaterly inflation using dax.
