I have a measure that displays ActualsAndForecast (with value of $181.K). I have another measure called Budget which also has a vlue of 181.1K. When I create a KPI on ActualsAndForecast and select Budget as Target with <75% as green, Between 75% - 85% as Yellow and over 85% as Red. For some reason the KPI color still comes up as green when both ActualsAndForecast & Budget have the same value of $181.1K. I expected the color to be red unless I'm reading it wrong.

Hi @Anonymous ,
The Red,Yellow and Green indicator is color codings for direction,you can change the color showing based on color formatting per your request,see below:
For reference,see below:

For my sample .pbix file,see attached.

have you checked the number and all its decimals explicityly? what is the explicit number rather than looking at it with a K format (ie thousands)

Hi @vanessafvg
Maybe I'm reading the KPI wrong. The Red, Yellow and Green indicator is for "Status" and not necessarily for the acutal text that displays in Red/Green. Is that correct?

Hi @vanessafvg
See attached pic with full numerical value. One in Red is unfiltered data and the one in green is set for a particular division. Again, I can't understand why the one in green does not display in red since Actual and Budget are same.
