Using slicer data as result to if else statement

I have the following table. I wish for the Cost values to be provided by the slicer output, whereby each cateogy has a cost slicer that a user can select the value from. Is there a way to do so?

 

I have tried:

Cost = if (Table[Category]="High",[cost_high],if(Table[Category]="Medium",[cost_medium],if(Table[Category]="Low",[cost_low])))

 

with, e.g. cost_high is measure indicating the the selected value from the slicer:

cost_high = SELECTEDVALUE('Level Cost'[High_Cost])

 

Using these codes, all I get is BLANKS.

 

Any help will be most appreciated.

 

Thanks.

@mm306 , that should come by default when you filter using slicer. What is expected outcome?

example.png

 

Cost = if (Table1[Category]="High",[cost_high],if(Table1[Category]="Medium",[cost_medium],if(Table1[Category]="Low",[cost_low])))

 

And the output for column Cost above is BLANK.

 

Is there a way for the Cost to reflect the slicer output?

 

Thanks.

Values in a calculated column are fixed. You'll need to create a measure instead.
