Forecasting - how to add linear, exponential, and moving average to matrix

Hi,

 

I have a matrix in Power BI with Years in the columns, Months in the rows, and the monthly uits sold as the values. I would like to forecast this data based on the months to take into account the seasonality as well as 3 different methods to determine the most realistic forecast. I would like to have a column for linear forecasting, exponential triple smoothing, and moving weight average.

 

My Power BI file is here and I have included a pic of the Excel file showing the additional three columns that I would like to calculate using Power BI.

Thanks a lot!

 

Jeremy
