I understand your question to mean that Turnover Date should reflect the last date/time that Turnover was changed. This cannot be done on a formula on its own.
A workflow rule, process builder or flow can do the trick (if Turnover is changed, update Turnover Date to current time), or you can enable history tracking for the Turnover field.

Trigger.oldMap.get(kav.Id).LastPublishedDate
it will give you the null pointer exception, since you are trying to get something on a NULL.
It's also possible you get a NULL pointer exception over here:
