@Anan2609 

maybe you can try 

measure=sum(LineTotal )* 1.02

I am new dax learner, i don't know how we can use all dax in one measure, but i have created multiple measure and got result.

1.    Total sales = SUM(Sales[LineTotal])

2.    Total sales*2 = [total sales]*2
3.   2% of total sales = [Total sales*2]/100
4.   Target  = [total sales]+[2% of total sales]

TargetSales = SUM([LineTotal]) * 2.00

@Anan2609 

do you mean creating a column?

column=LineTotal * 1.02

If this not what you want, pls provide the expected output.

How is it 1.02, can u elobrate 

Yeah So we need to increase the column value by 2 percent right so it is 
Linetotal + Linetotal*0.02 
Linetotal(1+0.02)
Linetotal*1.02
sum(Linetotal)*1.02 .
I Hope this helps
