The function date() doesn't return the expected value.

Test script:

<?php

$date = '2014-12-29';
$time = strtotime($date);

$date = date('Y-m-d', $time);
echo "$date\n"; // Display : 2014-12-29

$date = date('Y-W', $time);
echo "$date\n"; // Display : 2014-01

This looks correct to me. ISO week 01 for 2015 can start in 2014. Read
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_week_date
carefully. Especially:

    If 31 December is on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, it is in week 01 of the next year.

In 2014 Dec.31 was on a Wednesday so Monday 12-29 is in week 01 which PHP is correctly telling you.
