Formula for Retirement Eligibility Date - min age (58) and years of service plus age is min of 70

[cwood81]

I want to start off with saying that I have scoured the internet to find this answer -- it's driving me crazy. Someone please help!!

I need an excel formula that calculates a date based on:
1) Minimum age of 58 years
2) Age plus service is 70 or greater

Example data?
Description of data layout?

 

[cwood81]

DOB - in cell H1
Date of Hire - in cell K1

Example is employee was born 9/1/1962 (59 yrs old) and date of hire is 9/1/2007 --> They have met the eligibility requirement of min age 58 and age plus service equals 70 on 9/1/2018

 

[cwood81]

sorry the DOB is 9/1/1960 to be 59

 

[Special-K99]

DOB - in cell H1
Date of Hire - in cell K1

Example is employee was born 9/1/1962 (59 yrs old) and date of hire is 9/1/2007 --> They have met the eligibility requirement of min age 58 and age plus service equals 70 on 9/1/2018

9/1/2018 is not correct.
On 9/1/2018 the employee born 9/1/1960 will be 58, but if they started working 9/1/2007 they will only have worked 11 years on 9/1/2018.
58+11 is 69 not 70.
They will not be eligble for retirement until 9/1/2019 when they will be 59 years old and have worked for 12 years.

sorry -- this is why I need help with a formula because I can't even do the simple math Can you help?

What does the ACTUAL rule for retirement eligibility say?

 

[cwood81]

It says you are retirement eligible when you are age 58 or older and your age plus service is 70 years or greater

In this instance, age 58 plus 12 yrs service = 70;
age 59 plus 11 years service = 70;
age 60 plus 10 years service = 70 and so on

This should be very simple to work out, but it's giving me trouble too...

Messy formula in C2 and copied down:

=MAX(EDATE(DoB, 58 * 12),
     MIN(EDATE(DoB, 12 * (DATEDIF(DoB, EDATE(DoB + DoH, 70 * 12) / 2, "y") + 1)),
         EDATE(DoH, 12 * (DATEDIF(DoH, EDATE(DoB + DoH, 70 * 12) / 2, "y") + 1))))
