Default Count of days in a quarter

Here's another way

=SUM(DATE(YEAR(A1),FLOOR(MONTH(A1)-1,3)+{1,4},1)*{-1,1})

Yeah, good point about financial quarters.

Yes and no, if you are going to be able to adapt it to financial quarters
yes, but if you are using simple calendar quarters like what the OP asked
for then you are right that there is no need for the index.

No need for the call to INDEX.

=CHOOSE(INT((MONTH(A1)+2)/3),90+(DAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,29))=29),91,92,92)

One way

=CHOOSE(INDEX({1;2;3;4},INT((MONTH(A1)+2)/3)),IF(DAY(DATE(YEAR(A1),2,29))=29,91,90),91,92,92 )

will take care of leap years as well

if only for 2007


=CHOOSE(INDEX({1;2;3;4},INT((MONTH(A1)+2)/3)),90,91,92,92)

Hi,
Is there any formula to count the number of days in the quarter.

e.g if I have a date Feb6, 2007 in one cell, I want to populate
corresponding cell with number of days in Q1 2007 (90 days).

Please help me in this.

Thanks,
Mahesh
