Issue with DAX calculation being correct at detail level, but not intermediary

[ryandevs]

Hello,

I have some calculations I'm working on in regards to breakeven bushels per acre. What I am seeing is that if I have a table showing data at the lowest level in a table visual, it works fine. The calculation is also correct at the total (all crops) level. It's a basic calculation of Total Expenses / Actual Harvested Acres. 

However, when I use a hierarchy and show the data in a summarized form, the calculation is doing something different. The calculation works at an individual field level, but when the data is in a different visual and shown at the crop level (multiple fields), I'm not sure how I need to change the calculation. I think I'm missing something in regards to getting just the subset records.

In my PBIX file, I have a few sample measures. 

BREAKEVENV3 =

VAR TEXP = [Total Expenses]

VAR AHA = SUM(Class[Actual Harvested Acres])

RETURN

DIVIDE(TEXP,AHA,0)

Breakeven Bushels Per Acre (v2) =

//stores what I think is total for the class

VAR CLASSHARVEST = sum(Class[Actual Harvested Acres])

RETURN

if(

ISFILTERED('GL Transactions'[Crop]),

DIVIDE([Total Expenses], CLASSHARVEST ,0),

DIVIDE([Total Expenses],

CALCULATE( SUM(Class[Actual Harvested Acres]),ALLSELECTED('GL Transactions'[Class])),0))

Hieararchy is:

Crop (Corn, Wheat, Soybeans)

Class (Individual field)

I have written this calculation a few different ways with similar results so I think it is a logic error I'm missing. 

The total level is correct (122109.4 Total expenses / 1320.1 Acres = 92.50008)

Both breakeven calculations are correct, see example for winter wheat:

B1: (27091.39 / 283.90 = 95.43)

B2: (5312.06 / 53 = 100.23)

Crop level incorrect:

Expected value for Winter wheat: 32403.45 / 336.9 = 96.18121

Actual value for Winter wheat: 24.55

Thanks for any suggestions. I've found numerous posts pointing to do a percentage of total calculation that needs to be adjusted, but I think my problem needs to be solved by ensuring I have the correct subset of records, which I think is where I am going wrong.

Hi @Ashish_Mathur, Thanks for taking the time to reply. It does indeed look like your suggestion resolved the issue. 

It appears the issue was that my hieararchy was returning different results versus individually dragging the different hieararchy values in. 

If this is by design or if there is any documentation to relect this, I'd love to know a little more. Otherwise I'm happy with the issue resolved. Thank you again!

Hi,

You may download my PBI file from here.

Hope this helps.
