    Hi  HenryJS .

     

    1. Create a relationship between the 2 tables:

    2.Create a measure as below:

     

    Measure = 
var a=MAX('Export Placements'[Rate1ChargeRate])-MAX('Export Placements'[Rate1PayRate])
Return
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Export Candidates'[CandidatePayType])="Umbrella" || SELECTEDVALUE('Export Candidates'[CandidatePayType])="Ltd",a,
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Export Placements'[HourlyOrShiftRate])="per day",a*5,
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Export Placements'[HourlyOrShiftRate])="per hour",a*40,BLANK())))

     

    Finally you will see:

Could you kindly explain why you have chosen the solution that you have as solving the OP's question please? It seems that there are other posts that provide solutions more in line with the OP's requirements and display outcomes as the OP described. The solution accepted does not appear to show the desired output.

 

Thanks.
