sum of two measure showing incorrect value

Hi All

 

I have two tables 

 

Table 1 with Stock names and the quantity purchased

Table 2 with Last 1 year Historic prices of each stock

 

I have a two measure 

1. Measure 1 - total quantity which is the sum of all the quantites  of the stock

2. Measure 2 - Last Traded Price = This gives the Last trade price of each stock on the last traded date say 13th Jan 2023

 

I want to calculate the portfolio value on the Last Traded Date which should be simply the the sumproduct of quantity i have (measure 1) and the Last traded price (measure 2) for each stock

 

Thanks in Advance

Hello @baronraghu_3011 can you please share the measures as well as providing a sample of your data would help a lot

HI,

 

table 1 has two columns

Column 1 - stock name

Column 2 - quantity

Measure 1 - Sum( Table1[quantity])

 

Table 2 has tow columns 

Column 1 - Stock Name

Colume 2 - Date

Column 3 -  Daily Stock Price

 

I craeted a two refernce Measure for the

1. Last Trading Date = Today()-2

2. Stock Price = Sum (Table 2[Stock Price])

 

Measure 2 - Last Trading Price = calculate (Stock Price, Filter( Date, Date[Date]= Last Trading Date))

 

For calculating my total Portfolio Value = Measure 1 ( Total Quantity)* Measure 2 ( Last Trading Price) .

 

This I understand maynot give correct value as the quantity is multiplied with all the stock prices. So i believe it must be sum product. But hoe to apply has been my concern.

I think youcan try a sumx measure

 

Sumx(values(table[date]),measure1 * measure 2)

@baronraghu_3011 Hard to say with the information provided but, perhaps this is the classic measure totals problem?

Hi,

 

Thanks for those links. I understand a bit that using Hasonefilter along with SUMX might  turnaround the table the way I want to look but finding it hard to implement.   I have shared  snap of my table below for your refernce. The red circle is my issue which doesnt add up.
