month end
When statements close
Month end is the last day or final days of a calendar month, especially as a deadline for business activities.
Accounting departments close books at month end, salespeople push to meet quotas, and reports come due: We're slammed every month end.
Often hyphenated when used as a modifier: month-end reconciliation, month-end figures.
