Hi, @PHEstaciMa1 

Try formulas as below:

calculated column:

Manhours2 = 
VAR value1 =
    AVERAGEX (
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Manhours] <> BLANK () ),
        'Table'[Manhours]
    )
RETURN
    IF ( ISBLANK ( 'Table'[Manhours] ), value1, 'Table'[Manhours] )

measure:

M_Frequency Rate =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Count of Incidents] ) * 1000000,
    SUM ( 'Table'[Manhours2] )
)

Hi @v-easonf-msft I tried your but somehow the remaining months of 2021 which has no data does not appear in my table after I unpivot the column. You may check the file I uploaded here in this link --> How to calculate latest estimate using DAX

Hi, @PHEstaciMa1 

Not fully sure what you mean. 

Please check the table visual I created.

I see that you have create a calendar table for a period of 2018 to end of 2021, I guess that will be fine. Let me try it again and let you know ASAP.
