Thumbs up Answer: First Day of the Year

Hi Andrew,

Sure, I can help you with that. You can use the following formula to get the first day of the year for a given date:

Formula:
=DATE(YEAR(A1),1,1
Here, A1 is the cell containing the date for which you want to find the first day of the year. You can replace A1 with any other cell reference as per your requirement.

Let me break down the formula for you:
  1. YEAR(A1) extracts the year from the given date.
  2. The number 1 represents the month of January, which is the first month of the year.
  3. The number 1 represents the first day of the month.

So, when you combine all these arguments using the DATE function, you get the first day of the year for the given date.

Let me know if you need any further assistance.

Cheers,
[Your Name]
