    It is a bit difficult to give you an answer because different calculators do it different ways (there are two different logics involved – some calculators use one logic and others use a different one 🙂 )

    It might help you to watch the free lecture where I explain how I use my calculator to do it 🙂

    (When Miller Orr has been asked recently, the examiner gave the spread and so the arithmetic involved (to get the upper limit and return point) was easy. He has never asked for the spread to be calculated in a real exam.)
