Summarize creating a new category in the same table

Hi,

 

I have create the following table summarizing a data table as follows:

 

this_table =

SUMMARIZE(

'main_table',

ROLLUP(

main_table[fiscal year (type)]),

main_table[Poperty],

main_table[Account type],

"Value",

SUM(main_table[Value]))

 

resulting in something like this:

 

Fiscal Year (type)PropertyAccount typeValue
2019AAll Revenues100
2019BAll Revenues90
2019CAll Revenues80
2019A

All Costs

75
2019BAll Costs70
2019CAll Costs60
............

 

Now, I need to create another category of "Account type", which will be the EBITDA (All Revenues - All costs), resulting in something like:

 

 

Fiscal Year (type)PropertyAccount typeValue
2019AAll Revenues100
2019BAll Revenues90
2019CAll Revenues80
2019A

All Costs

75
2019BAll Costs70
2019CAll Costs60
2019AEBITDA25
2019BEBITDA20
2019CEBITDA20

 

What's the easiest way to do it?

The table was created as a table, not as a new request, so it's not available in the transformation menu.

 

Thank you
