Calculation of throughput of sub-block in digital design (I)

I am trying to understand the correct way to calculate throughput of a digital hardware design block that forms part of a bigger system.

Here are the few scenarios:

1. DUT takes 10 clock cycles to generate 20 bit output, then another 10 clock cycles to generate the next 20 bit output.

-> The maximum throughput is 20 bits per 10 clock cycles = 2 bits/cycle

1. DUT takes 10 clock cycles to generate the first 20 bit output, then (being pipelined) it generates a new 20 bit output ever cycle

-> The maximum throughput is 20 bits per 1 clock cycles = 20 bits/cycle

Is this correct or do I have to involve clock frequency to calculate the throughput as well?
