I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, but please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

It is for creating a new column.

avg by month and category CC =
VAR currentmonthend =
    EOMONTH ( Data[Date], 0 )
VAR currentcategory = Data[Category]
VAR result =
    AVERAGEX (
        FILTER (
            Data,
            EOMONTH ( Data[Date], 0 ) = currentmonthend
                && Data[Category] = currentcategory
        ),
        Data[Value]
    )
RETURN
    result
