Dividing Columns and and filtering group to find total

I have kind of jerry rigged this table together in order to get every field that I need to get this metric(Monthly invoice amount divided by total hours). My problem is that I can divide these two columns and get the per ticket Hours/INV but when I use the visual level filters to combine the BusGroup for each company it just adds the Hours/INV together

 

For example, if I grouped by BusGroup I would get 173.99 instead of 12.53=(802/(5+59). The Monthly_Invoice is a static number, they are charged that no matter how many tickets they submit. 

 

My other problem is that some hours listed are below 1 so when it divides the column it gives a much bigger number than it should be. The real number can be obtained if multiplied.

 

company_nameYearTicketnbrBusGroupMonthly_InvoiceHour_ActualHours/INV
CompanyA2019101Managed Services8025160.4
CompanyA2019102Managed Security420069.360.06
CompanyA2019103Managed Services8025913.59
CompanyB2019104Managed Security9006015
CompanyB2019105Managed Services3000.2545
CompanyB2019106Managed Services9009010

 

This is what my end goal is:

CompanyA2019 Managed Services8026412.53
CompanyA2019 Managed Security420069.360.6
CompanyB2019 Managed Services9001506
CompanyB2019 Managed Security3000.2545

 

I'm not really sure where to go form here, Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi @slounsbury

Create two measures

Measure = CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[Hour_Actual]),ALLEXCEPT(Table1,Table1[company_name],Table1[Year],Table1[BusGroup]))

Measure 2 = MAX([Monthly_Invoice])/[Measure]
