Can anyone provide a simple formula that works?

Ok I am going on 5 hours now and still this DAX language makes me sick!!

 

There is no possible way to simply calculata an accurate balance with this language.  Seriously Microsft dump this crappy language and use a more modern and up to date language for Power BI.!!!

 

Take a look at this VERY simple table,  All I am simply trying to do is have a measure in a column that presents the Balance of all records as of 12/31/2015 so I can compare them agains Balances this year.

 

So far nothing and I mean nothing , works.

Glad to hear it worked 🙂

 

I would have posted the formula but wanted to make sure you understand other internals as well, like table relationships and relationship type because I'm sure you will be doing this many times in the future.

 

Cheers!
