Which dates would you prefer for 11 months after the following dates on the left? 3/31/2010 + 11mo = (a) 3/3/2011 or (b) 2/28/2011 5/31/2010 + 11mo = (a) 5/1/2011 or (b) 4/30/2011 7/31/2010 + 11mo = (a) 7/1/2011 or (b) 6/30/2011 10/31/2010 + 11mo = (a) 10/1/2011 or (b) 9/30/2011 12/31/2010 + 11mo = (a) 12/1/2011 or (b) 11/30/2011 Column (a) is the result of DATE(YEAR(A1),11+MONTH(A1),DAY(A1). Column (b) is the result of EDATE(A1,11). For most purposes, people prefer (b). On the other hand, for your purposes, would it bother you that with EDATE, 11mo plus 3/28/2010, 3/29/2010 and 3/30/2010 as well as 3/31/2010 are all 2/28/2011? That does follow US law for most purposes. If you like column (b), then 11mo plus 1day is simply 1+EDATE(A1,11). You might need to select the Date format explicitly after entering or editing the formula. If you get a #NAME error, see the EDATE help page for the remedy. |
