Get even total average across months

Hi there,

 

I need help with getting an even average across the calendar months counting from the start date adding to 12 months. I have a date table connected to my data table through the "start_date".

 

I just need the average from the total evenly spread across the months starting from the start date for instance, please see result below.

 

Thank you in advance for your help.

 

Data:

Expected result measure: =
VAR monthscount =
    COUNTROWS (
        SUMMARIZE (
            FILTER (
                ALL ( 'Calendar' ),
                'Calendar'[Date] >= MAX ( Data[start_date] )
                    && 'Calendar'[Date] <= MAX ( Data[end_date] )
            ),
            'Calendar'[Month & Year]
        )
    )
VAR totalamount =
    SUM ( Data[total_amt] )
VAR result =
    DIVIDE ( totalamount, monthscount )
RETURN
    IF (
        MIN ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) >= MAX ( Data[start_date] )
            && MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) <= MAX ( Data[end_date] ),
        result
    )

@Jihwan_Kim Thank you so much. I was able to get my variables similarly to the one you had but I made the mistake of conencting my tables to the data table. This worked perfectly, thank you.
