What was the date 187 months ago?

Solution

Sunday October 05, 2008

0

187 months before today was 05 Oct 2008, a Sunday. Subtracting 187 months in the past is usually just counting from May; however, longer calculations will push us from 2024 into 2023 or further. Even if the calculation remains within the year, I usually take note of the 5 days left in the early part of May to prep for an additional calculation before April. But that’s all there is to it - understand the month, if 187 months will change the year, season, or fiscal calendar, and subtract your dates.

How we calculated 187 months before today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 187 months ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 05 May, then set the calculation - 187 months, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 187 months in May will bring us back to April or further.
  3. Counted backwards months from current day: date - 05 May, factoring in the 5 days left in May to calculate Sunday October 05, 2008
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for October 05

  • Current date: 05 May
  • Day of the week: Sunday
  • New Date: Sunday October 05, 2008
  • New Date Day of the week: Sunday
  • October marks the start of Q4 so counting backward will put you back into the 3 fiscal quarter.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 187 months ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 187 months is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 5 days in May + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your months and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use May's calendar: Begin by identifying 05 May on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, and the total days in April (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until last year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count backwards 187 times months by months, subtracting months from until your remainder of months is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex months calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-187 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -187, cell:cell) for working months.

Working months in 187 calendar months

187 months is Sunday October 05, 2008 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 187 months and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Sunday October 05, 2008 date.
