Circular Dependency Calculation

Hi,

I am trying to replicate the below calculations in Power BI.

 

Below, the Red Highlighted part is the source data. Black Highlighted are to be calculated.

 

The formula for Total Shares in Excel: 

If(Date = 8/10/1988, 200000, Income + Cap Gain + Previous Value of Adjusted Total Shares)

Formula for Adjusted Total Shares in Excel: 

Total Shares + Withdrawn shares

 

There is a circular dependancy on these 2 columns.

12/24/19960.0000.000(774.47)200,686.965199,912.492

 

I am trying to calculate these as Power BI measures, but a circular dependancy error is been thrown.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks
