Average for Current months only and totals for the rest of the months

Hi there,

I need to create a dynamic measure that will do next:

 

1. if the date is current month , then 

YoY sales = (Sales/ ((Sales LY / number of days in the months) *number of days Months to date)) -1

 

otherwise 

 

YoY sales = calculate(divide([sales],[Sales LY]), -1)

 

I used the below dax to get the number of days in the months 

 

no_days =
DATEDIFF(
EOMONTH(MAX(dim_date[full_date]),-1),
EOMONTH(MAX(dim_date[full_date]),-0),DAY)
 
and for the curent month:
Current Month = MONTH(TODAY())
 
I'm not sure how to join this all together to get the correct results. The final resutls should be YoY for past months and for the current month only avg based on the number of days.
Assuming today is the 3rd March expected results should be -31% not -93%
