    Hi ankit_cd ,

    Since you did not give a specific table, I had to create my own table for testing according to your description, please point out if there are any problems.

    Please try below steps:

    1. Below is my test table

    Table1:

    Table2:

    2. In "Table2", add a new column with below dax formula

     

    Total Cost =
    VAR cur_year = Table2[Year]
    VAR type_cost = "Fixed"
    VAR tmp =
        FILTER (
            ALL ( Table1 ),
            Table1[Type of cost] = type_cost
                && YEAR ( Table1[Year] ) = cur_year
        )
    RETURN
        SUMX ( tmp, [Cost] )
    

     

    Please refer the attached .pbix file.
