Average % of year over the last five years

Anonymous — Tue, 21 Jun 2022 14:55:51 GMT

I have got a measure called [Result], the table this measure is based on is connected with a Date table with a Date column, [Date].[Date]. Given that today is 21st of june 2022, I would like to calculate the following:

Average production % of entire year in the same period for the last 5 years:
[Result] for 01-01 until 06-21 divided by [Result] for the entire year
Example: 2021-01-01 until 2021-06-21 has a result of 240, entire year has 500; so outcome is 0,48
Let's say the results for 2016-2021 are:
Year 01-01 until 06-21 Entire Year %
2017 x x 0.42
2018 x x 0.54
2019 x x 0.50
2020 x x 0.46
2021 240 500 0.48
Average % 0.48
I would like to divide my [Result] for the current year so far (so until 2022-06-21) with the given average in order to estimate my [Result] for the entire year, given patterns from the last 5 years. So if my result for 2022-01-01 until 2022-06-21 would be 330, my outcome would be 330 divided by 0.48 resulting in 687.5.

I have no idea how to get started. This is way above my DAX knowledge. Can you please help me with this case?

Please let me know if I need to provide any other data or to clarify anything.

Hi Anonymous ,

Please create these four measures.

TD = VAR _year = YEAR(MAX('Date'[Date])) VAR _month = MONTH(TODAY()) VAR _day = DAY(TODAY()) VAR _result = CALCULATE( [Result], FILTER( ALL('Date'), 'Date'[Date] >= DATE(_year,1,1) && 'Date'[Date] <= DATE(_year,_month,_day) && _year <> YEAR(TODAY()) ) ) RETURN _result

% = AVERAGEX(SUMMARIZE('Date','Date'[Year],"M1",[YTD],"M2",[Result]),DIVIDE([M1],[M2]))

YTD = CALCULATE( [Result], DATESYTD('Date'[Date]) )

Expected values = DIVIDE([YTD],[%])

Thank you very much Anonymous , took me a little while to check against my own results but your solution fits perfectly!

Year	01-01 until 06-21	Entire Year	%
2017	x	x	0.42
2018	x	x	0.54
2019	x	x	0.50
2020	x	x	0.46
2021	240	500	0.48
		Average %	0.48
