$ & = sign before variable

[joydevdawn]

I have defined 2 below variables:

vTYMTDSales = Sum({<NUMDate = {43466}>}[Sales Qty])

vLYMTDSales = Sum({<NUMDate = {43101}>}[Sales Qty])

And create another variable called “vCompare”. 

Is both expression, taken calculated value or recalculate the above variable. 

vCompare =   $(=If($(vTYMTDSales) - $(vLYMTDSales) > 0,0,1))

 vCompare =   =If($(vTYMTDSales) - $(vLYMTDSales) > 0,0,1)

I think it depends upon if you have put an equal to or not before the variable.
