Calculated column vs Measure

Question

I am creating a value by dividing two columns ACT QTY Total and ACT VAL Total with each other to create Plan A$/t. However, when I divide them, first value should be 2858535/2494046 = 1.14614. I am getting 0.87 from the measure. But using ProfitBase matrix, when I divide the first two columns, with each other, the value comes to 1.14614. What could be the reason for the difference?

FYI measure def:

Plan A$/t =

DIVIDE(

calculate(SUM('Sales Detail2'[ACT QTY Total]), ALLSELECTED('Reporting Level Key'[Reporting Level Key (groups)])),

calculate(SUM('Sales Detail2'[ACT VAL Total]), ALLSELECTED('Reporting Level Key'[Reporting Level Key (groups)]))

)
