3 columns calculation.

Hello All,

 

Can someone advise how to accomplish this using power query? budget is set, committed and spent amounts are dynamic. we could commit/spend less or more. I would like the cost column to reflect properly.

 

Thank you!

 

budgetcommitedspent cost 
 $100.00 $    50.00 $   40.00 $  60.00
 $100.00 $    50.00 $   60.00 $  40.00
 $100.00 $    60.00 $   70.00 $  30.00
 $100.00 $  100.00 $100.00 $        -  0

    Hi SalimHoud ,

     

    Refering to your data, we can get the cost column by

    = [budget] - [spent]

     

    Then what is your excepted reuslt?

      I would like to also get the cost amount even if either of the committed or spent columns are blank. I have mitigated this temporary by copying the data over until spent amount is changed at the end of the month to recalculate.
