About Year and Month
The year used here is 365 days exactly (31,536,000 seconds), ignoring leap days. Ages, contracts, and interest rates are stated per year. The month used here is one twelfth of a 365-day year (about 30.42 days or 2,628,000 seconds) since calendar months vary from 28 to 31 days. Billing cycles and age reporting use months. One Year equals 12 Months (1 yr = 12 mo). Year is used in ages and anniversaries and in contracts and interest rates. Month is used in subscription billing cycles.
Precision and Rounding:Units up to the week are exact; months, years, decades, and centuries are calendar averages (this converter uses a 365-day year and a month of one twelfth of that), so converted values are approximations for scheduling, not for date arithmetic. Use a calendar library when exact dates matter.
SI time units follow the BIPM SI Brochure; month and year conversions use the documented average calendar values shown on this site (reference).
