Wrong Total with IF Measure

Hi experts!

 

I have a measure A like this:

VAR _Sales = [Sales]
RETURN
IF(MAX('Calendar 2'[MonthOffset]) > MAX('Calendar'[MonthOffset]), _Sales, 0)

Then I have a measure B like this:

SUM(Orders[Values])

Both measures I combine in a single measure like A + B.

But then if i put this measure into a matrix to show the values for year-month, then the total is wrong.

 

How would you adjust the total measure to get the totals right?

I hope this is enough information.

 

Thanks in advance
