Calculation of average

Hi Dear Power Bi expert,

I need help to calculate an average.

I want to create a column which calculate cost average per month in the same table.

In front of each cost, I need to put the cost month average (in a new column)

 

Many thanks 

 

Best regards

Wilfried

@Anonymous it's really hard to say what you want with the data supplied 🙂 but I'll take a guess that you have one table with both columns and you need something like this:

 

 

'Table'[New_Column] = 
CALCULATE (AVERAGE('Table'[Cost]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Month]))
