This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.
Open the Power BI file in the above folder to see:
The database contains 3 tables, as shown.
Create a fourth table to hold your measures, and create and show two simple measures and a table to display them in:
Create two simple measures to show the average box office takings and average budget spend for each film in millions of dollars, and show the measures in a table.
Now create and show a measure called Average profit margin showing that the film business is a good one to be in (at least for the films listed in the Wise Owl table):
The profit margin for a film is defined as the box office takings minus the budget for the film, divided by the box office takings.
You will need to trap divide-by-zero errors!
Save your file as Profit margins, then close it down.
