    Hi,

     

    For what i understood you need the difference from last day of the month and first day of the month, for each month, for the column [Actual Spending].

     

    So, i created two colums, Month_Year, and Amplitude, it goes like this

     

    Month_Year = MONTH(Plan1[Calendar Date]) & "/" & YEAR(Plan1[Calendar Date])

     

     

     

    Amplitude = 
    VAR SPENDING_LAST_DAY = CALCULATE(
        SUM(Plan1[Actual Spending]),
        FILTER(
        ALL(Plan1),
            EARLIER(Plan1[Center-Account]) = Plan1[Center-Account] && EARLIER(Plan1[Month_Year]) = Plan1[Month_Year] && ENDOFMONTH(Plan1[Calendar Date]) = Plan1[Calendar Date]
        )
    )
    
    VAR SPENDING_FIRST_DAY = CALCULATE(
        SUM(Plan1[Actual Spending]),
        FILTER(
        ALL(Plan1),
            EARLIER(Plan1[Center-Account]) = Plan1[Center-Account] && EARLIER(Plan1[Month_Year]) = Plan1[Month_Year] && STARTOFMONTH(Plan1[Calendar Date]) = Plan1[Calendar Date]
        )
    )
    
    RETURN SPENDING_LAST_DAY-SPENDING_FIRST_DAY

     

     

    The result 

     

    with this column you can do all of the other things like a top 20, and a calendar filter would work in any interval you want.

     

    Theres probably a cleaner way to do it but, i hope that helps.
