Hi:

If you have measures for sales and profit like: (these are just examples)

Sales = SUMX(SalesTable, SalesTable[Qty] * SalesTable [price]))

Profit = [Sales] - [COGS]

Then the measure is:

Result = DIVIDE([Profit] * [Sales], [Sales],0)

I hope this helps - basically the DIVIDE function handles divide by zero issues...
