Quick measure percentage difference shows incorrect value

Hi all

 

i have a quick measure that divides the "Incidents closed" by the Opened incidents and it should show me the closure rate.

 

For 1 row it is correct but for another row it gives wrong value.

 

my measure is 

 

incidents Closure rate = 
1 - (VAR __BASELINE_VALUE = [Incidents closed]
VAR __VALUE_TO_COMPARE = [Incidents opened]
RETURN
	IF(
		NOT ISBLANK(__VALUE_TO_COMPARE);
		DIVIDE(__VALUE_TO_COMPARE - __BASELINE_VALUE; __BASELINE_VALUE)
	))

 my outcome you can find below.


What is the reason why week 4 shows wrong figures?

Hi @jurgenvd,

 

If you directly add this measure to visual, does it return correct results?

Percentage=DIVIDE([Incidents closed],[Incidents opened])

Above formula is generated automatically via Quick measure, right? Please manually create a measure with the same DAX code to test whether it can display expected result.
