The calculator won't help you on that front.

The SQD for an FP credit should be equal to the per-credit value (net of sales taxes) less 3rd party charges (AIFs, ATSC, etc) on a comparable revenue ticket.

So if you want to check what they awarded you for SQD, look at making a revenue booking for the same route and you should be able to get to the right number.

(For passes touching other countries, FX can occasionally move it around a bit, but you should still get close; in your case, this shouldn't matter, but in case anyone else has similar issues)
