Filter the lowest value over a threshold

Guys, 

 

I guess is a very simple question, the biggest problem is how to ask the question I guess. I have a table with articles and price; nevertheless the customer for whatever reason, have values that make no sense; this table for instance:

ItemCost
Cereal250
Cereal220
Cereal320
Cereal240
Cereal300
Cereal20

I have to get the lowest price (in this table 20), but in this case this one seems to be wrong. So I would like to stablish a theshold, for instance 20%. That means that if the cost value is less than average minus 20% this should be a mistake and I should take the lowest price over the threshold (in this instance 220 since the average minus 20% is 180). So I should not take into account the wrong value; how to do so?

 

Thanks a lot, regards,

Abelardo

something along these lines? 

 

1. Sort the data by Item and cost i.e., Add an index column based on the item

2. Calculate the previous value

Hey Sevenhills,

 

Thanks for your quick reply. Unfortunately, my description is not so good; nevertheless taking a look of what you sent me, some ideas came into my head, and got the solution. 

 

This DAX give me what I am looking for, I added it for anyone that should find it helpful.

 

Minimum price = CALCULATE(MIN(INV1[Price]),
FILTER(INV1, INV1[Price] > (AVERAGE(INV1[Price]) * 0.80))
)
 
Thanks, regards,
Abelardo
