This should be closer - replace the echo statements with call to your processing function/script:

Code:
function period
{
   date=${1:today}
   period="$(date -d "$date" +"%d.%m.%u")"
   [[ $period = 01.0[147]* || $period = 01.10* ]] && echo "QTR"
   [[ $period = 01* ]] && echo "MTH"
   [[ "$period" = *.1 ]] && echo "WK"
}

period "Dec 1 2013"
echo
period "Apr 1 2013"
echo
period "Nov 11 2013"
echo
period

output:
Code:
MTH

QTR
MTH
WK

WK
