    Thanks all for the quick responses, but I found a solution that works. I am using the following measure to accomplish this.

     

    Trans MoM Var =
    VAR __PREV_MONTH =
    CALCULATE([Transport MTD],DATEADD(FILTER(DATESMTD('Calendar'[Date]),'Calendar'[Date]<TODAY()),-1,MONTH))
    RETURN
        DIVIDE(SUM('TD'[Transport]) - __PREV_MONTH, __PREV_MONTH)

Create a date calendar and following calculations should help, check for complete last month

 

MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
last MTD (complete) Sales =  CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFMONTH(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH))))
last year MTD (complete) Sales =  CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFMONTH(dateadd('Date'[Date],-12,MONTH))))

MTD (Year End) Sales =  CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFYEAR('Date'[Date])))
MTD (Last Year End) Sales =  CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-12,MONTH))))

 

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s.
