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 Month (1 yr = 12 mo). Year to Month conversion comes up most often in ages and anniversaries and in contracts and interest rates, typically when figures need restating for 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.
Conversion factors per NIST Special Publication 811 and the BIPM SI Brochure (9th edition) (reference).
