The calculation happens through a few measures ill post them below

 

This is the measure i want to get an average from:

△ % Budget Actuals = [△ Budget Actuals] / [Budget]
 
----------
△ Budget Actuals = [Sales] - [Budget]
Sales = Sum(Sales[Sales Amount])
Budget = SUM(Sales[Budget])
 
 
 

please see attached if this is what you looking for?

@vanessafvg First of all thanks for the effort you are putting in! But this isnt quite what i need

I need something like this

 

BudgetSales% Actuals

1.971.793

132.4126.7%
3.397.666234.8196.9%
1.152.45087.7917.6%
1.323.337154.67511.7%
460.30655.20712.0%

 

The average of the column % Actuals would be 8,98%. I want to make something like this with the average

 

BudgetSales%   ActualsAverage

1.971.793

132.4126.7%8,98%
3.397.666234.8196.9%8,98%
1.152.45087.7917.6%8,98%
1.323.337154.67511.7%8,98%
460.30655.20712.0%8,98%

@vanessafvg I figured it out! 

 

Thanks for the help!

Can you please post your solution for the benefit of others?

hi @Anonymous  what i mean is just paste the data in text, not the picture, otherwise i can't copy it out, so i can take the data and create the measure in power bi  for you and paste it back
