Default Counting Days

You are counting days differently... in first example, you are including the
due date in your difference whereas in your second example you are not. Here
is the formula if you are not counting the due date in your difference...

=DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY())+1,0)-A1

and if you want to include the due date, just add 1 to it.
