@Anonymous I'm wondering if the value is not exactly 0.89 but that it is just being displayed that way due to how many decimal places you have chosen to display.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I think your data in [EE Compa-Ratio] column should in range  of >=0.885 and <0.895.

Please try code as below to create a calculated column.

Column =
SWITCH ( TRUE (), [EE Compa-Ratio] >= 0.885 && [EE Compa-Ratio] < 0.895, 2, 10 )

 

Best Regards,
Rico Zhou

Thank you - I did a Power Querey and rounded that column exactly to the two decimal place. ❤️  

@Anonymous So as an experiment, what happens if you change your statement to this:

Column = 
  SWITCH( TRUE(),
    [EE Compa-Ratio] > .88999999999999999999 && [EE Compa-Ratio] < .8901, 2,
    10
  )
