    Trying to pick the cell with 2013 date from two cells then applying yearfrac calculation

    This is what I have for data

    A B C
    02/02/2007 10/09/2013
    03/02/2010 21/12/2015
    04/05/2013

    I want cell C to look at A and B dates in the same row and pick the one that has a year of 2013. Then take that cell and calulate the (yearfrac(start_date),end_date,basis) function using start_date = cell with date of 2013 and end date = Dec 31, 2013

    Can anyone help?

    Something like this...

    =IF(OR(YEAR(A2)=2013,YEAR(B2)=2013),YEARFRAC(IF(YEAR(A2)=2013,A2,B2),DATE(2013,12,31)),"")

    Hello Tony this works but I was wondering if it is possible to add one more condition to the calculation step.

    If date in A2 is 2013 yearfrac from date to dec 31 2013
    If date in B2 is 2013 yearfrac jan 1 2013 to date

    Is this possible?

    Maybe this...

    =IF(OR(YEAR(A2)=2013,YEAR(B2)=2013),YEARFRAC(IF(YEAR(A2)=2013,A2,DATE(2013,1,1)),IF(YEAR(A2)=2013,DATE(2013,12,31),B2)),"")

    This is great!! One last thing, if neither applies can I populate the cell with number 1?

    At the very end of the formula replace "" with 1.
