Add a value within a measure manually

Hello.

I need your help please with the below measure we use to calculate our targets for the months July 2022-June 2023. 

The measure is FY23 July = SUMX('FY23 Targets',[Revenue June FY22]*(1+'FY23 Targets'[MoM %])).

Under [Revenue June FY22] there are 2 countries showing $0 (as they had no revenue back in June 2022) and due to that the FY23 July measure gives a $0 so do the rest of the months.
For our reporting purposes though we want to apply the value of $10,000 to these 2 countries for FY23 July so that the rest of the months (until June 2023) will calculate the targets based on the mom % we have been assigned. 
Is this doable?
Thank you,
V

@vbis Maybe:

FY23 July = 
  VAR __Sum = SUMX('FY23 Targets',[Revenue June FY22]*(1+'FY23 Targets'[MoM %]))
RETURN
  IF(__Sum = 0, 10000, __Sum)

@vbis This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376

Thank you so much @Greg_Deckler. It worked and i have to admit that i needed someone to unblock me 🙂 

There is another issue now though. The $20K of these 2 countries are not added into the all up sum (the sum of the region these countries are part of). 

Any ideas? 

Thank you again
