    Hi mlmchilli ,

    First of all, many thanks to lbendlin  for your very quick and effective replies, and I will give some additions below:

    1.Create the sample table.

    2.Create the new measure to calculate the margin share.

     

    Margin Share = 
    var partn_ = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Partners])
    VAR Margin = DIVIDE(SUM('Table'[Revenue]), SUM('Table'[Total cost]))
    VAR BaseMargin = 0.2
    VAR UpperMargin = 0.4
    VAR ExcessMargin = MAX(0, Margin - UpperMargin)
    VAR SharedExcess = ExcessMargin / 2
    
    RETURN
    IF(partn_ = "A", 
        IF(Margin <= 0.4, BaseMargin * SUM('Table'[Total cost]), BaseMargin * SUM('Table'[Total cost]) + SharedExcess * SUM('Table'[Total cost])),
        IF(Margin <= 0.4, (Margin - BaseMargin) * SUM('Table'[Total cost]), BaseMargin * SUM('Table'[Total cost]) + SharedExcess * SUM('Table'[Total cost]))
    )
    

     

    3.Drag the measure into the table visual. The result is shown below.

    Best Regards,
