Fiscal

Get the fiscal period attributes for various countries.

The gem extends the Date and Time classes to add a fiscal object, which in turn provides additional objects and methods to find fiscal year, half year, quarter and month, along with start and end dates.

Additionally, a prev and next methods are available to step through fiscal periods.

The gem also supports fiscal calendars of different countries. Please see examples for more details.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'fiscal'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install fiscal

The methods for fiscal periods are available both in Date and Time classes as well as in the instances.

A typical usage would be:

Date.today.fiscal.year.start
Date.today.fiscal.quarter.prev.end

Date.today.fiscal(country: :us).quarter.next.start
Date.today.fiscal(country: :in).month.number

Alternatively a fiscal object can be created for further use.

fiscal = Date.fiscal(date: '2014-01-01', country: :in)
fiscal.year.start

fiscal_month = Date.fiscal(date: '2014-01-01', country: :in).month
fiscal_month.start
fiscal_month.prev.end
