Issue with dynamic calculation based off of slicer selection

Hello,

 

I am a noobie here but trying to determine if this can be done. I am trying to calculate the total testing cost by multipling the test cost by the units sold. The issue I am running into is the cost of a test changes month to month. So when I put my calculation into the measure it sums the cost of the timeframe selected rather then calculating each month. How can this be done?

 

Example:

 

Jan-19 Test Cost is $18 Volume is 10

Feb-19 Test Cost is $19 Volume is 10

Mar-19 Test Cost is $25 Volume is 10

 

What I am getting:

Jan Cost: $180 (this is correct)

Jan-Feb Cost: $740 ($37 test cost x 20 volume)

Jan-Mar Cost: $1,860 ($62 test cost x 30 volume)

 

What I want to get:

Jan Cost: $180 (this is correct)

Jan-Feb Cost: $370 ($18 test cost x 10 volume, $19 test cost x 10 volume)

Jan-Mar Cost: $620 ($18 test cost x 10 volume, $19 test cost x 10 volume, $25 test cost x 10 volume)

 

Calculation: 

Total Cost = SUM('StarLIMS CPT'[Test Cost])*SUM('Total Rev'[Revenue Acode Volume])

 

I appreciate all the help!

Hi @smallon ,

 

To create measures as below.

 

Measure = SUM(Table1[testcost])*SUM(Table1[volume])
Measure 2 = CALCULATE(SUMX(Table1,[Measure]),FILTER(ALL(Table1),'Table1'[DATE]<=MAX('Table1'[DATE])))
