Help with Annualized Measure

I have a very simple calculated measure that provides an annulized termination figure for the current year. What I would like to do, is modify this measure to only calculate the annualized figure for the current year only, otherwise display the total from previous years. How would I best achieve this? I thought I could use an IF, but it does not work  becasue I believe that I cannot mix columns and measures in this command. Thanks for any info

 

Annualized = 
DIVIDE([Terminations YTD],[MonthsPassed])*12​

var _2 = [Terminations LYTD]
