Tracy Oden 31 how to add a second to a formula date and time field
This should be simple, but I can't figure it out. How do I add a second to a date and time field in a formula? I have a 'end' date and time field. I want my formula field to show 'next' available date and time. The next available should be one second from end date and time.
This might help you.

There is no way to add seconds to data fields.
The only other way is convert time(Hour:Min:Sec) to seconds and add next onesecond to it and again reconvert to time. But its hectic.

I really wonder what action are you going to perform just one second after the endate ? I mean I already lost close to 120 seconds while writing this answer ;)
Anyway here goes your solution.
To add a second to your Date/time field you need find it's fractional value lby dividing it with the seconds value in 24 hours.
1 second = 1/24*60*60 = 1/86400 = 0.000011
So simple add it to your Date/Time field like this
Hope that helps !
Wrong: 1 second = 1/24*60*60 = 1/86400 = 0.000011
Correct: 1 second = 1/(24*60*60) = 1/86400 = 0.000011
