Well consider using scriptrunner to do the calculations once the issue is created and update the due date.

How

1. Add a post function to the workflow.

2. Calculate the due date based on created date.

3. Update the due date field based on the calculation.

4. Position the post function last in the create issue transition so it occurs after an issue is created.

Alternatively, you can also ise scriptrunner event listener and a similar code for it.

Hope the suggestion helps get you started.
