Hi @lisa01bh,

In Power BI, the basic cell is a column. We can't add a row in a table. We only can add a column. For your scenario, you can create a measure and a card visual to display the result.

Gross profit =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table[Budget] ), FILTER ( Table, Table[Category] = "Sales" ) )
    - CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table[Budget] ),
        FILTER ( Table, Table[Category] = "Income" )
    )


Best Regards,
Angelia
