Total Costs Measure not Working Correctly

For each Project there is 3 ProjectOptions Option A, Option B, and Option C with 5 Unit Cost each in their individual tables (15 rows). In table 'All Values' for each ProjectOption has values 1-15 (675 rows). I have 4 slicers total: ProjectOption and individual Values field (1-15) filtered by Project source. There will always be 3 values chosen in the ProjectOption slicer because I am comparing the combinations of Projects and their ProjectOption to find the most cost efficient project totals totalling 15 values overall. So if I choose ProjectOption Apartment Units - Option A value 4 (Selected Cost 219k), Clubhouse - Option B value 5 (Selected Cost 217k), and Exterior - Option A value 5 ( Selected Cost 123k). The Total Cost measure should equate to 559k and the Selected Value measure should say 15 but both measures say 0. I don't understand why the ProjectOption individual selected costs and selected values display the correct totals but wont display the total costs in the seperate card measure. In regards to the Line and Stacked column chart visual x axis is ProjectOption and the column y axis is the 3 projects selected cost and when I select different values on the slicers for each project the visual goes blank unless its the same selected value across the projects. @parry2k @Greg_Deckler AllValues Table (Apartment Units, Clubhouse, Exterior)AllValues Table (Apartment Units, Clubhouse, Exterior)1/3 project table1/3 project tableCard visuals not workingCard visuals not working

@parry2k @Greg_Deckler I need to be able to add all 3 project selected costs and selected values together based on slicer selection and display on graph. Thanks! Here is the onedrive link https://architecturaldgngrp-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/jnguyen_adgblatt_com/Eao2CoixD2NKtuya8...
