How to determine one year from now in Javascript

Question

I\'m trying to get one year from now\'s date, and it\'s not working.

JS:

var now = new Date();

var oneYr = new Date();
oneYr.setYear(now.getYear() +

Using some of the answers on this page and here, I came up with my own answer as none of these answers fully solved it for me.

Here is crux of it

var startDate = "27 Apr 2017";
var numOfYears = 1;
var expireDate = new Date(startDate);
expireDate.setFullYear(expireDate.getFullYear() + numOfYears);
expireDate.setDate(expireDate.getDate() -1);

And here a a JSFiddle that has a working example: https://jsfiddle.net/wavesailor/g9a6qqq5/
