Microsoft Power BI Data Analyst Practice Question

You add two calculation groups to a Power BI Desktop model. The Currency group (precedence = 5) returns dynamic formats by using SELECTEDMEASUREFORMATSTRING(). The Time Intelligence group (precedence = 15) defines items such as YTD that wrap SELECTEDMEASURE() in CALCULATE. A matrix visual shows the explicit measure [Sales], and slicers activate both the USD item from Currency and the YTD item from Time Intelligence. When DAX resolves the measure, which calculation group is evaluated first, and why?

  • Currency is applied first because calculation groups execute in ascending order of the Precedence value.

  • Time Intelligence is applied first because calculation groups execute in descending order of the Precedence value.

  • Currency is applied first because format-string expressions are always processed before value expressions.

  • The group executed first depends on which slicer the user changed most recently; Precedence is ignored.
