How to perform arithmetic operation on date

Hi all,

I would appreciate if anyone knows how to perform adding to date.
As for normal date, i can easily plus with any number.
But when it comes to month end say for example 28 Jun, i need to perform a plus with number 3, it will not return 1 Jul.

Thanks in advance for your help.
