Measure with multiple format types

I am trying to create a measure in power bi that has the possibility of displaying as a percent or a rate per 1000.   I need to be able to display these numbers in a bar chart. 

I have found one possible solution to this problem, however it turns the values within the measure into a text.  This prevents me from creating a bar chart.  To get this result I am using the following dax equation. 

Measure = IF(HASONEVALUE(Column),
SWITCH(VALUES(Column),
"Value",FORMAT([Measure]*12000,"Standard"),
"Value",FORMAT([Measure]*12000,"Standard"),
FORMAT([Measure],"Percent")))
