How to determine the value?
 

If today is the last day of this month, then return today+2, else today.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to determine whether today is the
last day of this month or not?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Two ways....

=if(today()=eomonth(today(),0), 2+today(), today())

If you get a #NAME error, look at the Help page for EOMONTH for
instructions.

If you cannot or do not want to install the ATP (for Excel 2003, at least),
replace EOMONTH(TODAY(),0) with DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),1+MONTH(TODAY()),0).

Of course, you can avoid all the calls to TODAY() by putting =TODAY() into
some cell and referencing it instead in the formula above.

=IF(A1=EOMONTH(A1,0),TODAY()+2,TODAY())

See help for EMONTH if returns #NAME as you may need to check the add-in.

Try this...

A1: =TODAY()

=A1+((A1=EOMONTH(A1,0))*2)

Note that the EOMONTH function requires the Analysis ToolPak add-in be
installed if you're using a version of Excel prior to Excel 2007. If you
enter the formula and get a #NAME? error look in Excel help for the EOMONTH
function. It'll tell you how to fix the problem.

Hello Eric,

I suggest to use the formula
=TODAY()+2*(MONTH(TODAY())<MONTH(TODAY()+1))
