I don't know, but I use this in a script to do different things if it's
the end of the month:

TOMORROW=`date --date="+1 day" +%d`     # Date for tomorrow

# if today is the end of the month (TOMORROW=01) do something
# else do someotherthing
if [ $TOMORROW = "01" ]; then
        something
else
        someotherthing
fi
