Error when adding measures together

Hi All, 

 

I am having an issue with a measure that is adding together multiple measures. When I do the normal
([Measure1) + [Measure2] + [Measure3])

it will create them in a column and not sum them except in the total at the bottom of my matrix. Attached is my formula and a screenshot of the output of the formula.

I would like the total value at the bottom (36,648,306) to populate the location that has (281,027,153)

This formula is returning a column when I place it in my matrix.

@amitchandak 
I am using row context. 
As it turns out, I am not using iteration. I am using agregators. 

This is the format of the row context agregation measures that I am using to calculate the orginal values in each category.

This is the measure that is placing each measure into the YTD column.

@Dax_Learner , Are you using row context in some measure?

can you share the measure calculation?
