How to calculate a warranty end date based on the type of warranty using DAX?

I have two tables with the following column(s) 'Sales'[WarrantyStart] and this table with a grouped column 'Products'[WarrantyType] (string data type). I generally know how to add years to a date, just not sure how to go about putting this together since I just learned DAX a couple months ago: 

 

Date(year('Sales'[WarrantyStart])+3,month('Sales'[WarrantyStart]),day('Sales'[WarrantyStart]))

Warranty Type examples = 

Seven Year Extended Limited Warranty

Standard Limited Warranty

Five Year Limited Warranty

 

What is the best way to go about adding years to the [WarrantyStart] date based on the [WarrantyType]?? Thank you for any help!

For that you can use the SWITCH() statement.

 

 

Date(year('Sales'[WarrantyStart])+
SWITCH('Products'[WarrantyType]
  ,"Seven Year Extended Limited Warranty",7
  ,"Five Year Limited Warranty",5
  ,3)
,month('Sales'[WarrantyStart])
,day('Sales'[WarrantyStart]))

I used this exact code, only thing I did different was add the 'Products'[WarrantyType] column to the 'Sales' table using the following code:

wType =
CALCULATE(
FIRSTNONBLANK('Products'[WarrantyType], TRUE()),
Filter('Products', [ProductID] = [SalesProductID]
))

This version should also work

 

wType =
CALCULATE(
FIRSTNONBLANK('Products'[WarrantyType], TRUE()),
[ProductID] = [SalesProductID]
)
