You have not told us your timezone, but this seems to be as documented if
you are in CET. The help page says
The 'as.Date' methods accept character strings, factors, logical
'NA' and objects of classes '"POSIXlt"' and '"POSIXct"'. (The
last are converted to days by ignoring the time after midnight in
the representation of the time in UTC.)
^^^^^^
Probably as.POSIXct(strptime("1994-01-24","%Y-%m-%d") is 1994-01-23 23:00
in UTC in your timezone.
