Hi, @VV13 

According to your description, you can try this calculated column:

Result = 
SWITCH(
    [Column A],
    "Value a", 1500*0.5,
    "Value b", 1500*0.4,
    1500)

And you can get what you want, like this:

If this result is not what you want, you can post some sample data(without sensitive data) and your expected result.

@VV13 , You can create a column like

Switch( True() ,
[column A]= "Value 1" , 1500 * 0.5
[column A]= "Value 2" , 1500 *0.4
, 1500
)

 

Or measure like 

measure  =

sumx(Table, Switch( True() ,
[column A]= "Value 1" , 1500 * 0.5
[column A]= "Value 2" , 1500 *0.4
, 1500
))

which table column would i be referring here?
