Hi!
Do you have a Date table (Set and use date tables in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn)?
If so, PREVIOUSYEAR() should work, in the form of:
AA_Betrag_YTY-1 :=
CALCULATE(
[korrigierter Betrag], //assuming this is the measure you want to calculate
PREVIOUSYEAR(Dates[Date]) //date column from your date table
)
