So, anyway. everything is saying that you have a round-problem
13056.83/360 = 36.269
so, try to click left mouse on your field Cost then go to Modelling pane or Column tools pane (in the new version of pbi desktop) and set number of decimal as 3

Linkedin- Hi,
The "error" seems a rounding problem.
I suggest you use the same precision in your all numbers to see the exact value.
