Since this is a data preparation activity I would recommend you to implement the same in Edit Query.
Try the below example
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMtQ11DUyMDJQ0lFSitWJVgLSRjCh2FgA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type date}, {"Column2", type date}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Date", each if [Column1]=null then Date.AddDays([Column2],365) else Date.AddDays([Column1],365)) in #"Added Custom"
Below is the DAX logicDate1 = var d1= CALCULATE(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1])) var d2= CALCULATE(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column2])) var result= IF(ISBLANK(d1),d2+365,d1+365) return result

Try this
Next Review = VAR d1 = CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Mi-Review Report'[Last Review] ) ) VAR d2 = CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Mi-Review Report'[Start Date] ) ) VAR d3 = CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Mi-Review Report'[Create Date] ) ) VAR result = IF ( ISBLANK ( d1 ), IF ( ISBLANK ( d2 ), d3 + 365, d2 + 365 ), d1 + 365 ) RETURN result

#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type date}, {"Column2", type date}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Date", each if [Column1]=null then Date.AddDays([Column2],365) else Date.AddDays([Column1],365))
in
#"Added Custom"
Below is the DAX logic
Date1 =
var d1= CALCULATE(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1]))
var d2= CALCULATE(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column2]))
var result= IF(ISBLANK(d1),d2+365,d1+365)
return result
