How to nest a formula with a formula (If/And Statement)

Here's my formula need.

IF(Field A > (Field B * 1.1)), "ERROR", 

AND/OR

IF((Field C * 12 / Field A) < Field D, "Error",

Otherwise it should calulate and post

(Field C * 12) / Field A

How would I represent this? I've tried several methods. Also, tried doing a validation but the field itself isn't showing up in the validation field options when I create it.

The (Field C * 12) / Field A should be the formula posted if the other two items are not true. 

Also, with the use of True/False - it gives me the message:


 Error: Incorrect parameter type for function 'IF()'. Expected Boolean, received Number
