John has just started working for a company and his friend Jim thinks that he will probably be promoted by the end of the year so when Jim talks to Jill about John and Jill asks Jim will John get a pay raise next year then Jim replies saying
1) "I guess he would have been promoted by the end of this year so forget about a pay raise he probably is going to get at a higher post" or
2) "I guess he might have been promoted by the end of the year so forget about a pay raise he probably is going to get at a higher post".
Can "would have been" or "may have been" used for future"?
