For the income statement I want to create a matrix table:
I want to compare the amount of 2021 to the amount of the previous years for each category. Yet, the formula for the percentage values DIVIDE(CALCULATE([Amount],'Date'[Year]=2021,[Amount],0) does not work, the % values remain empty when I apply the formula.
Here is how it looks like in Excel. How can I achieve this in Power BI?

% =
VAR _2021 =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ),
'Table'[Year] = 2021
)
RETURN
_2021 / SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] )
Output:

Hi @VahidDM
Thank you for your great and helpful answer.
Yet, I actually have three tables that result in the income statement, namely the date, account and income table. How can I apply ALLEXCEPT here?
