Create measure calculating reduction/increase rate

Good day.

 

Please help me calculate below in Power BI. I would like to calculate increase rate over time comparing the earliest month and the latest month, using the element Tested.

The calculation should in the end give me: Tested i.e  (32 sum of  Jan 2019 - 55 sum of July 2020) / 32 sum of Jan 2019 =72%. The data I have is as below:

Name Element Date Value
JumboTested1/1/201910
JumboDiagnonised1/1/20194
MonkeyTested1/7/202020
MonkeyDiagnonised1/12/20205
DonkeyTested1/1/20198
DonkeyDiagnonised1/1/20192
DonkeyTested1/7/202015
DonkeyDiagnonised1/12/20206
JumboTested1/1/201910
JumboDiagnonised1/1/20196
MonkeyTested1/7/202020
MonkeyDiagnonised1/12/20205
DonkeyTested1/1/20204

 

I appreciate your help

  • Anonymous add the following measures, you can always put all this in one measure but I created all these as separated measures:

     

    Sum Value = SUM ( Diff[ Value] )
    
    Sum First Date = 
    VAR __firstDate = CALCULATE ( MIN ( Diff[ Date] ), ALLSELECTED ( Diff ) )
    RETURN
    CALCULATE ( [Sum Value], Diff[ Date] = __firstDate )
    
    Sum Last Date = 
    VAR __lastDate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( Diff[ Date] ), ALLSELECTED ( Diff ) )
    RETURN
    CALCULATE ( [Sum Value], Diff[ Date] = __lastDate )
    
    % Diff = DIVIDE ( [Sum First Date] - [Sum Last Date], [Sum First Date] )
