Watch out for line breaks
there are two "=" in both formulas
=COUNTIF(A:A,"="&DATE(YEAR($C$1),MONTH($C$1),DAY( 1))) - COUNTIF(A:A,"="&DATE(YEAR($C$1),MONTH($C$1)+1,DAY (1)))


=SUMIF(A:A,"="&DATE(YEAR($D$1),MONTH($D$1),DAY(1) ),B:B) - SUMIF(A:A,"="&DATE(YEAR($D$1),MONTH($D$1)+1,DAY(1 )),B:B)

How do I get the COUNTIF criteria to recognize only month and year on a range
with specific dates?
