Date based on day of year + year

Given a Year, and a day of that year, how can i get the full date? ex: 60/2014 = March First 2014 and 61/2016 = March First 2016

notes: -year and day can be passed as separate parameters.
-result can be a regular Date instance, i just explicitally showed as text to alert for "leap year"

JavaScript has some pretty neat "magic":

var input = "60/2014";
var parts = input.split("/");
var d = new Date(parts[1],0,parts[0]);

That's right. 60th of January. JavaScript will automatically correct this to the first of March.
