Measure to generate a value associated with a matrix cell?

PBIX file is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j_4CrUj0fPh0xK6hnO7OZ-uIWkoP5Kdg/view?usp=sharing

 

I have a measure that returns the first observed year in the columns below.  The programming of that measure is:

EARLIEST_TRANSACTION_YEAR = 
        CALCULATE(
            MIN('Helivalues Transaction History'[Sale Year]),
            ALLSELECTED('Helivalues Transaction History'[Sale Year]) 
        )

 

2010 appears in every cell in the matrix in the lower panel.

What is the DAX so that a matrix would have $9,740,000 in every cell.  Please note I can't use MAX on those values because sometimes the starting value is less than the second or third value.  

 

Basically, I want the value associated with year 2010 to be output into a measure.  

 

Thanks for any help!

@mrothschild I think this the measure you are looking for:

 

zzzzzzzzzzPrice during Starting Sale Year = 

VAR EARLIEST_TRANSACTION_YEAR = 
        CALCULATE(
            MIN('Helivalues Transaction History'[Sale Year]),
            ALLSELECTED('Helivalues Transaction History'[Sale Year]) 
        )

VAR EARLIEST_PRICE = 
CALCULATE ( 
    [zzAverage Unit Price Current Year (weighted by Model Year Units)], 
    'Helivalues Transaction History'[Sale Year] = EARLIEST_TRANSACTION_YEAR 
) 
RETURN
   EARLIEST_PRICE
