Open the Music Tours - Calculated Columns.pbix file in the folder shown above and go to the Table view of the Tours table.
Add a calculated column called Tour length to calculate the length of each tour in years. You can do this by subtracting the Start year from the End year and adding 1 to the result.
Create a table visual which shows a list of tours sorted so that the longest one appears at the top. Your table could resemble the one shown below:
The long goodbyes?
Add a table visual which shows the sum of Tour length for each Artist, sorted with the longest touring artist at the top.
Fortunately, every member of the Rolling Stones has a free bus pass.
Add three more calculated columns according to the table shown below:
Column name | What it should do |
---|---|
Shows per year | Divide Shows by Tour length |
Avg show revenue | Divide Actual gross by Shows |
Avg attendance | Divide Attendance by Shows |
Apply any formatting you think is appropriate.
The results are easier to read after you format them.
Add a calculated column called Avg ticket price which divides Actual gross by Attendance. Watch out for missing Attendance figures!
It's best to use the DIVIDE function to avoid seeing an infinity symbol where the Attendance is blank.
Save the file as The Show must go on.pbix
