Answer
Example:
You have 5 licenses that expire on 8/21/2018
You renew 7 licenses on 7/21/2018
daysToAdd = (daysRemained + daysPurchased)/totalQuantity
newExpirationDate = actualDate + daysToAdd
daysRemained = (oldExpirationDate – actualDate) * oldQuantity
daysRemained = (8/21/2018 – 7/21/2018) * 5 = 155 days
daysPurchased = newQuantityRenew* 365 = 7 * 365 = 2555 days
totalQuantity = newQuantityRenew = 7
daysToAdd = (155+ 2555) / 7 = 387 days
newExpirationDate = 8/21/2018 + 387 days = 9/12/2019

Answer
1. If you have less than or equal with 365 remaining days for the Standard Subscription, the finish date is calculated with the following formula:
RemaingCost = 70 - [(70/365) * RemainingDays]
DaysToAdd = RemainingCost / (199.99 / 365)
FinishDate = OldFinishDate + DaysToAdd
Example
You have 1 Standard Subscription that expires after 50 days on 10/25/2019
RemainingCost = 70 - [(70 / 365) * 50] = 60.41
DaysToAdd = 60.41 / 0.5479 = 110 days
FinishDate = 10/25/2019 + 110 days = 2/12/2020
2. If you have greater than 365 remaining days for the Standard Subscription, the finish date is calculated with the following formula:
TotalRemainigCost = [RemainingDays * (129.99 / 365)] + 70
DaysToAdd = TotalRemainingCost / (199.99 / 365)
FinishDate = CurrentDate + DaysToAdd
Example
You have 1 Standard Subscription that expires after 700 days on 9/24/2020
RemainingCost = [700 * (129.99 / 365)]+ 70= 319.29
DaysToAdd = 319.29 / 0.5479 = 583 days
FinishDate = 10/25/2018 + 583 days = 5/29/2020
RemaingCost = 70 - [(70/365) * RemainingDays]
DaysToAdd = RemainingCost / (199.99 / 365)
FinishDate = OldFinishDate + DaysToAdd
Example
You have 1 Standard Subscription that expires after 50 days on 10/25/2019
RemainingCost = 70 - [(70 / 365) * 50] = 60.41
DaysToAdd = 60.41 / 0.5479 = 110 days
FinishDate = 10/25/2019 + 110 days = 2/12/2020
2. If you have greater than 365 remaining days for the Standard Subscription, the finish date is calculated with the following formula:
TotalRemainigCost = [RemainingDays * (129.99 / 365)] + 70
DaysToAdd = TotalRemainingCost / (199.99 / 365)
FinishDate = CurrentDate + DaysToAdd
Example
You have 1 Standard Subscription that expires after 700 days on 9/24/2020
RemainingCost = [700 * (129.99 / 365)]+ 70= 319.29
DaysToAdd = 319.29 / 0.5479 = 583 days
FinishDate = 10/25/2018 + 583 days = 5/29/2020

If your subscriptions expired and you want to purchase one or multiple subscriptions, the quantity in database will be the new quantity purchased and the expiration date will be after 1 year from the day you make the new purchase.
Example:
You have 5 expired licenses with expiration date on 8/21/2018.
On 9/21/2018 you purchase 5 licenses.
totalQuantity = 5;
ExpirationDate = 9/21/2018
Example:
You have 5 expired licenses with expiration date on 8/21/2018.
On 9/21/2018 you purchase 5 licenses.
totalQuantity = 5;
ExpirationDate = 9/21/2018

Answer
The finish date will be calculate like this:
daysToAdd = (daysRemained + daysPurchased)/totalQuantity
newExpirationDate = actualDate + daysToAdd
Example:
You have 5 licenses that expires on 8/21/2018.
You want to purchase 2 more licenses on 7/21/2018.
daysRemained = (oldExpirationDate – actualDate) * oldQuantity
daysRemained = (8/21/2018 – 7/21/2018) * 5 = 155 days.
daysPurchased = newQuantityPurchased * 365 = 2 * 365 = 730 days
totalQuantity = oldQuantity + newQuantityPurchased = 5 + 2 = 7
daysToAdd = (155 + 730) / 7 = 126 days
newExpirationDate = 7/21/2018 (actualDate) + 126days = 12/25/2018
daysToAdd = (daysRemained + daysPurchased)/totalQuantity
newExpirationDate = actualDate + daysToAdd
Example:
You have 5 licenses that expires on 8/21/2018.
You want to purchase 2 more licenses on 7/21/2018.
daysRemained = (oldExpirationDate – actualDate) * oldQuantity
daysRemained = (8/21/2018 – 7/21/2018) * 5 = 155 days.
daysPurchased = newQuantityPurchased * 365 = 2 * 365 = 730 days
totalQuantity = oldQuantity + newQuantityPurchased = 5 + 2 = 7
daysToAdd = (155 + 730) / 7 = 126 days
newExpirationDate = 7/21/2018 (actualDate) + 126days = 12/25/2018
