    Hi Index_Match 

     

    Try this measure [without Date Table]:

    Repeat Customers =
VAR _A =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        Customer,
        "CY",
            CALCULATE (
                DISTINCTCOUNT ( Customer[Customer] ),
                FILTER (
                    ALL ( customer ),
                    YEAR ( Customer[Year] )
                        = YEAR ( EARLIER ( Customer[Year] ) ) - 1
                        && Customer[Customer] = EARLIER ( Customer[Customer] )
                )
            ) + 0
    )
RETURN
    SUMX ( _A, [CY] )

     

     

    output:

Index_Match solution attached, and core measure is this:

 

Repeat Customers = 
VAR __thisYearCustomer = VALUES ( Customer[Customer] )
VAR __lastYearCustomer = CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( Customer[Customer] ), PREVIOUSYEAR ('Calendar'[Date] ) ) 
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( INTERSECT ( __thisYearCustomer, __lastYearCustomer ) ) + 0
