day of fiscal year column

I would like to create a day of fiscal year column.
My fiscal year starts the 1st of October. I have the date in a date column like 1-10-2016 and this should return value 1 which it does. The first of January 2017 should return value 93 but is returning -272.
Please see my power query formula below and help me out.

= Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Day of Fiscal Year", each Duration.Days([Date] - #date(Date.Year([Date]),10,1)) + 1)

let
    Source = Table.FromList(List.Dates(#date(2022,9,20),40,#duration(1,0,0,0)), Splitter.SplitByNothing(), {"Date"}),
    #"Day of FY" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Day of FY", each Duration.Days([Date] - #date(Date.Year([Date])-Byte.From(Date.Month([Date])<10),10,1))+1)
in
    #"Day of FY"

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
