Please if your column1 and column2 are having text data and have the data type as text.

New Column = 
IF (
    AND( Table1[Column1] = "A" , Table1[Column2] = "Brazil"), 
    Table1[CostAdjusted],
    Table1[Cost]
)

 

You can share your screenshot fo the table where ou are trying to add the column with the error message
