Calculating difference between columns

Hi,

I have the following table multiple sales forecasts for future months:

                     July (month we are forecasting)                         

                    May 1    May 8    May 15   May 22   May 29   (each one of the dates in which we generated a forecast)    

Product A      10          12            11          13           10            

 

What I would like to do is calculate the delta between each one of the snapshots. Something like this

                    July (Forecast)                                                          July (Deltas)

                    May 1    May 8    May 15   May 22   May 29           May1-8     May8-15     May15-22    May 22-29

Product A      10          12            11          13           10                     2               -1                  2                  -3

 

I already looked at several solutions and I am not quite there.

I would really appreciate any help!!

@hhdez ,Last Day Non Continuous day or tailing 7 should work in case you have date

 

example

Last Day Non Continuous = CALCULATE([sales],filter(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date] =MAXX(FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date]<max('Date'[Date])),'Date'[Date])))

 

or

Last Day Non Continuous = CALCULATE([sales],filter(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date] =calculate( max(Sales[Sales Date]), FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date]<max('Date'[Date])))))

 

7 Day behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-7,Day))
