    css
    YTD Sales = TOTALYTD([Total Sales], Calendar[Date])
  2. Month-to-Date Sales:

  3. Quarter-to-Date Sales:

    mathematica
    Previous Year Sales = CALCULATE([Total Sales], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(Calendar[Date]))
  5. Year-over-Year Growth:

    YoY Growth = DIVIDE([Total Sales] - [Previous Year Sales], [Previous Year Sales])
  6. Rolling 3-Month Average Sales:

    3M Rolling Avg Sales = AVERAGEX(DATESINPERIOD(Calendar[Date], MAX(Calendar[Date]), -3, MONTH), [Total Sales])
  7. Cumulative Sales:

    scss
    Cumulative Sales = SUMX(FILTER(ALL(Calendar), Calendar[Date] <= MAX(Calendar[Date])), [Total Sales])
  8. Running Total Sales:

    YTD Profit = TOTALYTD([Total Profit], Calendar[Date])
  10. Month-to-Date Profit:

    css
    MTD Profit = TOTALMTD([Total Profit], Calendar[Date])

  15. Last Date of Sales:

    mathematica
    Last Sales Date = MAXX(FILTER(Calendar, [Total Sales] > 0), Calendar[Date])
  16. Number of Days with Sales:

    css
    Days with Sales = COUNTROWS(FILTER(Calendar, [Total Sales] > 0))
  17. Average Sales Growth Rate:

    scss
    Avg Sales Growth Rate = AVERAGEX(VALUES(Calendar[Year]), [YoY Growth])
  18. Total Sales for Selected Period:

    sql
    Sales for Selected Period = CALCULATE([Total Sales], DATESBETWEEN(Calendar[Date], [Start Date], [End Date]))
  19. Max Sales Date:

    scss
    Max Sales Date = CALCULATE(MAX(Calendar[Date]), FILTER(ALL(Calendar), [Total Sales] = [Max Sales]))
  20. Min Sales Date:

    scss
    Min Sales Date = CALCULATE(MIN(Calendar[Date]), FILTER(ALL(Calendar), [Total Sales] = [Min Sales]))
