    There is no way to delete replies here!?  My answer was... not exactly on target :(

     

    You need a way to calculate the "most recent rate".  That is the last date in rate table, which is less than (or equal?) to the date in your quantities table.

     

    Maybe something like... ?

     

    =CALCULATE(
         LASTNONBLANK(Rates[Date], MIN(Rates[Rate]),

         FILTER(Rates, Rates[Date] <= MAX(Quantites[Date]))
    )
