Why each option
Installing PerformancePoint Services requires starting the PerformancePoint Service and creating its service application, as well as enabling Excel Calculation Services to support analytical rendering.
Starting the PerformancePoint Service activates the service instance on the server, and creating the PerformancePoint Services service application provisions its configuration database and makes dashboards, scorecards, and KPIs available to site collections - both sub-steps are mandatory for the service to function.
Excel Calculation Services is a dependency of PerformancePoint Services for rendering Excel-based scorecard and report components embedded in dashboards, so it must be started as part of the installation.
The Claims to Windows Token Service is needed only for Kerberos identity delegation scenarios in PerformancePoint, not as a required step in the core installation process.
Configuring service application associations links web applications to provisioned services and is a post-installation step, not a required action during the PerformancePoint Services installation itself.
