    here is link to pbix file, i did few things which I can explain, basically converted your "MAU" to "Month Date" for relative filtering as 1st date of the month, you can see this in power query and from there it was all easy.

The last value of column K is the data that I want to be displayed as the current value.

    Still not very clear but i guess you are saying if nov 2017 is selected, you want to show last value from Col K from nov 2017 w hich will be 192379 as target and sum of col E will be total value will be actual, correct?

     

    And in case dec2017, target value will be 85085 and so on...

     

    is this correct understanding?

      no, the objective value is taken from the first source of data that I showed.

        oh ok, from your data sample (1st picture) there is no data for each day of nov, 2017 but in your 2nd image, you have col K with values.

         

        Anyhow, you can use lookup function to get the value from your target or if these tables are related then you can use related function.
