Tax years

I've just begun working through FAC.

A question asks how many NZ tax years (1 Apr - 31 Mar) there are between 1 May 1998 and 9 Sep 2020.

I calculated 20, the solution gives 21. When I double-checked my answer I still come up with 20.

Can anyone help me see what I'm missing?
 
Lol I get 23 (as the number of tax years overlapping with 1 May 1998 to 9 Sep 2020), ie the number of tax returns.
Perhaps they mean 21 complete tax years.

Write it out 1 Apr XX to 31 Mar YY and count them up again.
 
Yes, sorry, I was incomplete in how I stated the problem: the task is to state how many complete NZ tax years there are.

Aaaaaaaaand I just found out I missed the year 04/05 in my list. 21 it is!
