Unable to solve circular dependency
Anonymous,
This happens when you have context transition happens in your calculated column, and your table that contains the calculated column does not have a primary key. You can look at this article to have a better understanding of circular dependency.

Thanks for answering. Unfortunately I already read it, I understand what circular dependency means, but I don't find out why it affects my situation. I am not able to detect where it takes me.

Anonymous,
Since you have context transition (using CALCULATE) in the two calculated columns of the many side of the relationship, calculated column 1 depends on all the columns in the Margin table + calculated column 2. Same thing happens to calculated column, where it depends on all the columns in the Margin + calculated column 1. This leads to circular dependency that explains in the article.
