Subtracting 2 values from separate columns and dividing by a column total

Hello,

 

As shown in the illustrative photo below, I'm trying to compute the CONTRIBUTION for each company (see red): (2017 sales value - 2016 sales value) / (2016 Total Sales).

 

I have been able to create a new measure for the 2017-2016 sales delta for the numerator, but cannot figure out how to create a new measure that will display the Sum of the 2016 sales column. Please note that the values in the columns will be changing depending on how I filter the data using the Slicer - I need this column total to dynamically update.

 

I appreciate the help!
