    Hi Anonymous 

    I build two tables like yours to have a test.

    Table1:

    Table2:

    Add two measures Volume and Unit Margin into Table1.

    Unit Margin = SUM(Table2[Unit Margin])
    Volume = SUM(Table2[Volume])

    Then I build a measure and a calculated column to achieve your goal.

    Calculated Column:

    Actual Difference = 
VAR _FORMULA = ('Table1'[Unit Margin]-'Table1'[Loc Unit Margin])*'Table1'[Volume]
RETURN
_FORMULA

     Measure:

    Difference in Power Bi = 
VAR _Formula =
     ( [Unit Margin] - SUM ( Table1[Loc Unit Margin] ) ) * [Volume]
RETURN
    IF (
        HASONEVALUE ( Table1[Location] ),
        _Formula,
        SUMX (
            SUMMARIZE (
                Table1,
                Table1[Location],
                "_Formula",
                     ( [Unit Margin] - SUM ( Table1[Loc Unit Margin] ) ) * [Volume]
            ),
            [_Formula]
        )
    )

    Result:

amitchandak My Unit Margin & Volume is a measure & only Loc Unit Margin is a column. Hence the Sumx will not work in this scenario, right? Sorry, i should have mentioned that in the post.
