CALCULATE Formula Repeats When I Don't Want It To

So...I'm using a CALCULATE formula as a measure in a Pivot Table to (forgive me) calculate a cumulative YTD rate. It works just fine. Almost too fine. The problem is it repeats the last (again, forgive me) calculation for the rest of the year. In other words, My data stops in August and you would think that the calculation would stop there, but nooooooo, it repeats August's rate through the rest of the year.


Formula: YTD TRIR:=CALCULATE([TRIR], DATESYTD('Calendar'[Date]))

Pivot Table Picture:

As you can see, the YTD TRIR column is the same August through December. Can anyone help with removing the repeating rate? I've tried using an IF statement, but Excel doesn't like it when I do that.


Thanks,
Safety Guy

I tried something similar, and got an error that CALCULATE could not be used in a true/false scenario!

Regardless, it works now. Thank you very much.
