How many years from BC to AD?

The year before the year One AD is called the year One BC. (There was no year zero.) We call it that now, according to the Gregorian Calendar. At the time it was called different names in different places where other calendars were used. This means that from the year 5 BC to the year 5 AD, for example, was 9 years, not 10 as you might expect if there had been a year zero. And today, there are people who use CE (Common Era) for the AD years and BCE (Before the Common Era) for the BC years.


Why did the 1878 calendar repeat itself four times in the 20 years between 1888 and 1908?

That is just the way the calendars do repeat. A calendar repeats either every 5, 6 or 11 years, or every 28 years in the case of a leap year. A leap year skips a day, so you don't wait 7 years for a day to come round a second time. Depending how the leap years lie in relation to a year, one day may be skipped in a 7 year period, 2 days may be skipped in a 7 year period, if there are 2 leap years in that period, or the day you are expecting to come round is itself skipped, which accounts for an 11 year gap. If you check a set of calendars for that period, or any period you will see how the gaps are normally 5, 6 or 11 years. 1878 started on a Tuesday. As part of the normal pattern, there was an 11 year gap to 1889. 1884 did start on a Tuesday but being a leap year, it had 29 days in February, which 1878 did not, so it was not a repeat of 1878. So 1889 was the next normal year to start on a Tuesday. There was then a 6 year gap to 1895, as 1892 was the only leap year in that period, causing 1 day to be skipped. 1900 was not a leap year, which slightly disrupted the normal pattern of a leap year being every 4 years. It would normally have been a 5 year gap after that, but because 1900 was not a leap year, there was another 6 year gap to 1901, as 1896 was the only leap year in that period. Then there was a 6 year gap to 1907 as 1904 was the only leap year in that period. So that is how the 4 years occurred.

Nothing can legally change or start over the 7 year reporting time period. That time period is set by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Certain actions can re-set the statute of limitations (SOL) which is the time period established by state law that determines how long a consumer may be sued to recover a debt.
