Percent change from prior year

I need to do a calculation of percent change from percentage results

the first layer was to calculate the percent mix per column on a year to year basis example: 

 

2018_YTD = CALCULATE(SUM('Table1'[Value number]),DATESBETWEEN('Table'[Value date],date(2018,1,1),DATE(2018,MONTH(TODAY()),day(TODAY()))))

 

2019_YTD = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value number]),'Table'[Field with year number]=2019)

 

These two results, I dragged and dropped in the Value field in the vizualization pane, and selected show value as a percent of column total to obtain the results as a % 

 

then, Created this other formula between the two years, but this results show only the growth from 2018 into 2019.

% Chg = Divide('Table'[2019_YTD],'Table'[2018_YTD])-1

 

What I need is the change between the percentages see below

 

This is the result I need20182019% change between years:
Owner             28.20%   30.56%   8.4%          (this is = (30.56%/28.20%) - 1  
Tenant  71.80%69.44%-3.3%

 

DAX formula gives  
 20182019 
Owner1497258373%
Tenant3811586854%

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

To create measures as below.

2018_YTD = CALCULATE(SUM('Table1'[Value number]),DATESBETWEEN(Table1[date],date(2018,1,1),DATE(2018,MONTH(TODAY()),day(TODAY()))))
2019_YTD = CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[Value number]),Table1[Field with year number]=2019)
2018 % = DIVIDE([2018_YTD],SUMX(ALLSELECTED(Table1[role]),[2018_YTD]))
2019 % = DIVIDE([2019_YTD],SUMX(ALLSELECTED(Table1[role]),[2019_YTD]))
% change between years = DIVIDE([2018 %],[2019 %])-1

% change between years = DIVIDE([2018 %],[2019 %])-1
