Measures / Calculated Fields in Power Pivot | Multiplication

Hi all,
 
In need of some help here. I have been studying and using Power Query, Power Pivot, Power BI, etc. the last few months. I have NOT made a calculated field in EXCEL. This may not be the correct forum, but I'd appreciate any guidance here.
 
I have data that gives me the headcount per 'CountryCode' from November 2020-October 2022. I also have a separate table that gives me the rates per month per country code from November 2020-October 2022. I want to be able to convert HEADCOUNT to $$$ based on the conversion rate (per month).
 
I know this is probably simple to do for most here, but I have not had any experience doing this. Please let me know if anyone could provide any guidance here.
 
Thank you!!!
 
Details: I made a Star Schema data model in Power Pivot (Made the same one in Power BI) - and I have a fact table which shows Employee Name/ID (Key), Headcount/FTE (Value), with a dimension table that countains the COUNTRY CODE and the Value that corresponds with COUNTRY CODE which I need to multiply with HEADCOUNT/FTE. Everytime I try to do it, it shows an error. I want to be able to make this measure which takes the CODE value (In a dimension table) and multiplies it to the HEADCOUNT/FTE (In the fact table)
