    Please use the following measure

    MyMeasure =
SUMX (
    SUMMARIZE (
        'Balance',
        'Balance'[created_at],
        'Balance'[account_id]
    ),
    CALCULATE (
        VAR maxid =
            MAX ( 'Balance'[id] )
        RETURN
            CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Balance'[balance] ), 'Balance'[id] = maxid )
    )
)

It shouldn't. Please make sure you are creatin a measure not a calculated column. To be more safe please use

Last balance =
VAR MaxDate =
    MAX ( TableName[Date] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[BALANCE] ), TableName[Date] = MaxDate )

If you want to create a calculated column then

Last balance =
VAR IdTable =
    CALCULATETABLE ( TableName, ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[ID] ) )
VAR MaxDate =
    MAXX ( IdTable, TableName[Date] )
RETURN
    MAXX ( FILTER ( TableName, TableName[Date] = MaxDate ), TableName[BALANCE] )
