    Try this solution.

     

    1. Data model:

     

     

    2. Measures:

     

    Billable Hours = SUM ( LaborHours[Billable Hours] )
    
    Non-Billable Hours = SUM ( LaborHours[Non-Billable Hours] )
    
    Allocated Labor Cost = 
    VAR vBaseTable =
        ADDCOLUMNS (
            SUMMARIZE (
                LaborHours,
                Customer[Customer ID],
                Employee[Employee ID],
                Employee[Labor Cost]
            ),
            "@CustomerHours", [Billable Hours] + [Non-Billable Hours]
        )
    VAR vEmpHoursTable =
        ADDCOLUMNS (
            vBaseTable,
            "@EmployeeHoursTotal", CALCULATE ( [Billable Hours] + [Non-Billable Hours], ALL ( Customer ) )
        )
    VAR vPercentTable =
        ADDCOLUMNS (
            vEmpHoursTable,
            "@Percent", DIVIDE ( [@CustomerHours], [@EmployeeHoursTotal] )
        )
    VAR vAllocationTable =
        ADDCOLUMNS ( vPercentTable, "@Allocation", [@Percent] * Employee[Labor Cost] )
    VAR vResult =
        SUMX ( vAllocationTable, [@Allocation] )
    RETURN
        vResult

     

    3. Create visual using Customer[Customer ID]:
