 Lets take an example of Peter Parker.

Utilization (Est) = Hours (Est)/Hours (Available) as a percentage.
Assume, Peter works 8 hours a day from Monday to Friday. The 'Hours(Available)' column will show you this information. 

Assume, Peter's Hours(Est) for last quarter is as follows. The Resource Load Chart or the 'Hours(Est)' column will show you this information. 

Assume Peter's Hours(EstActual) on planned activities for last quarter is as follows. The 'Hours(Actual)' column will show you this information. e g

Peter works 8 hours a day from Monday to Friday.  

So, the Estimated Utilization of Peter is as follows:
Utilization (Est) = Hours (Est)/Hours (Available) as a percentage.
For Apr (131/176)*100=74%.

Similarly, the Actual Utilization is as follows:
Utilization (Actual) = Hours (Actual)//Hours (Available) as a percentage.
For Apr (128/176)*100=73%
