Expression Question

Hello QlikView Community,

I am trying to write an expression in a Text Object, where it does the following

(Avg Price (current period)-Avg Price(baseline period))*Qty(current period)

Then sum the above expression to calculate inflation/deflation

The expression needs to be on the front end, so that the user can select the current period and baseline period. Thank you in advance for assistance. 

Here is a sample data 

Current period - Nov-2022 Baseline Period - Dec-2021

Month-Year Material-ID Inv. Value  Stock Qty Avg Price
Nov-22 AAA 942.39 37 25.47
Nov-22 BBB 942.34 2 471.17
Nov-22 CCC 941.5 14 67.25
Nov-22 DDD 941.5 14 67.25
Nov-22 EEE 940.96 8 117.62
Nov-22 XXX 940.3 5 188.06
Dec-21 AAA 85.29 3 28.43
Dec-21 BBB 475.15 1 475.15
Dec-21 CCC 941.5 14 67.25
Dec-21 DDD 295.35 11 26.85
Dec-21 EEE 940.96 8 117.62
Dec-21 XXX 1013.1 5 202.62
