About this tool

Two date tools for finance work. Count the days between two dates using actual days or the 30/360 convention, or add and subtract days to see the resulting date and its weekday.

How to use

1
Step 1
Choose days between dates, or date plus or minus N days.
2
Step 2
Enter the dates, or the start date and number of days (negative subtracts).
3
Step 3
For days between, choose actual days or 30/360.
4
Step 4
Press Calculate.

How it works

Actual counting uses the real calendar. The 30/360 convention treats every month as 30 days, which is common for bond and loan interest, and so a full calendar year is exactly 360 days. When adding days, the result also shows the weekday of the start and end dates.

actual days = end − start      30/360 days = 360 × Δyears + 30 × Δmonths + Δdays (with end-of-month adjustments)

Worked example

A full calendar year, two ways

Input
Start 2024-01-01; end 2024-12-31
Output
Actual 365 days; 30/360 360 days
Walkthrough
2024 is a leap year with 366 days, and 1 Jan to 31 Dec is 365 days elapsed. On 30/360, 11 months × 30 plus 30 days gives 360. Adding 90 days to Monday 1 January 2024 gives Sunday 31 March 2024.

Limitations

  • Calendar days only; no business-day or holiday logic.
  • Only two day-count options: actual and 30/360.
