Display balance over custom threshold value

In trying to display balances per category based on user input threshold values.

 

parag123_0-1611155580343.png

In the above scenario,

High Rate Threshold = Rate Multiplier * Avg Rate

I'm trying to display Balances which have 'Rates' above 'high rate threshold'. 

 

To achieve this, I've used following DAX expression:

 

 

Balance Above Threshold = CALCULATE(SUM(Sheet1[Balance]), FILTER(Sheet1,Sheet1[Rate]>[High Rate Threshold]))

 

 

 

But this doesn't seem to be working correctly. Please let me know what modifications do I need to make to the DAX expression or any alternate approach.

Hi, @Anonymous , you might want try this measure,

Balance Above Threshold =
VAR __th = [High Rate Threshold]
RETURN
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( Sheet1[Balance] ), Sheet1[Rate] > __th )

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
