You can use time intelligence functions available in Power BI (provided you have continuous DateTable).
For YTD IDs use the below measure.

IDs YTD =

TOTALYTD (

    DISTINCTCOUNT ( PLASFL[MERCHANT_APPLICATION_ID] ),

    DATESYTD ( DateCodeMSTR[FullDate] )

)

For previous year numbers, I am assuming that you have a date field in PLASFL table. Replace "PLASFL[Date]" with the actual date field in PLASFL table.

 

IDs PY =

VAR MaxDataDate =

    CALCULATE ( MAX ( PLASFL[Date] ), ALL ( PLASFL ) )

RETURN

    CALCULATE (

        [IDs YTD],

        SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR (

            INTERSECT (

                VALUES ( DateCodeMSTR[FullDate] ),

                DATESBETWEEN ( DateCodeMSTR[FullDate], BLANK (), MaxDataDate )

            )

        )

    )

Hope this is helpful.
