I know there are a bunch of threads about this matter, but none of the solutions that I've found seem to work for my particular measure. Below is the data that I am working with:
Amount is the measure that I have created in my report. I am able to get the line level calculations correct, but my total is showing as $22.02, instead of the $18.53.

This should work for you:
Amount =
SUMX(

VAR UnitCost = CALCULATE( AVERAGE(Table[Unit Cost]) )
VAR QtyPer = CALCULATE( SUM(Table[QtyPer]) )
RETURN
(
( UnitCost * QtyPer ) * .25
) * ShippedQty
)

@t_young First, please vote for this idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=082203f1-594f-4ba7-ac87-bb91096c742e
This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376

You need to SUMMARIZE your table by all the columns in your visual, include the measure as a column and SUMX your Amount column.
Unless I am doing it wrong, I have tried that many times with no success.
