Hi @7ballp25 
Here is a sample file with the solution https://we.tl/t-UvJsRpmiYd

Forcasted Sales = 
VAR LastAvialableYear = 
    MAX ( Data[Year] ) 
VAR LastAvailableSales = 
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( Data[Sales] ),'Data'[Year] = LastAvialableYear )
VAR CurrentYear = 
    MAX ('New Data'[Year] )
VAR YearDifference =
    CurrentYear - LastAvialableYear
VAR SelectedPercent =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Parameter[Selected %] )
RETURN
    LastAvailableSales * POWER ( 1 + SelectedPercent, YearDifference )
