This is best achieved by converting the dates to timestamps (number of
seconds since 01/01/1970), using mktime(). Once you've done that, you
can add your ($quantity * $time) to the timestamp, and then reconvert
using date().
Quite what it is you want to sort, I'm not sure. But timestamps are
very easy to sort, as they're just integers.
