Measure to work out % of items sold year on year

Hi experts

 

I would you work out the percentage increase or decrease based on item and year for all products in dataset. This is just sample data.

Item         year       value

Apple       2020       5

Apple       2021       6

Please try the Measure given below.

% Change = 

VAR __ITEM = SELECTEDVALUE( Table8[Item] )
VAR __YEAR = SELECTEDVALUE(Table8[Year])- 1  
VAR __LASTYEAR = CALCULATE( SUM(Table8[Value]), Table8[Item] = __ITEM, Table8[Year] = __YEAR)
VAR __VARIANCE = SUM(Table8[Value])  - __LASTYEAR
VAR __CHANGE =  DIVIDE(   __VARIANCE,    __LASTYEAR)
RETURN
__CHANGE
