Microsoft Azure Data Fundamentals DP-900 Practice Question
You have a table that lists monthly revenue changes, with positive and negative values. You need a visual that displays how each month contributes to the running total and highlights the starting and ending revenue levels. Which Power BI visual should you choose?
A waterfall chart is designed to illustrate how sequential positive and negative values affect an accumulated total. In Power BI, the first column represents the starting value from your data, each intermediate column shows the monthly increase or decrease, and you can turn on the Show total option to display a final total column. This layout clearly highlights both the opening and closing revenue levels.
A gauge chart shows a single value against a target, not multiple step-wise contributions.
A pie chart shows part-to-whole proportions at one point in time but cannot depict running totals.
A scatter chart is for visualizing relationships between two numerical measures, not for additive sequences. Therefore, the waterfall chart is the appropriate choice.
