MAX value separately by one column's different values

Hi   I would like to have a DAX to solve this (I could create a helper table quite easily in QE). Example table:   Country Cost per item Date US   100 1.1.2021 US 100 1.2.2021 ...

    I think your suggestion only does the removal of time/date in the formula. In my model the main problem is that it that current formula suggestions do not do the calculations by row/country if my table does not have a country in it. So if I dont have country the MAX chooses the largest number of the whole table (without considering the country differences) and thus the total result is wrong. If country is a dimension in the table, then it calculates it correctly.

     

    I did a workaround and created just a helper table for this and it of course did the trick. Maybe some day I know how to work these around directly with DAX (or understand when it does not make sense to try to tackle with DAX).
