I'm curious to know why you want to know the difference - performance data for the approved sections of the flight manual has to come from flight testing, and then be corrected for specification engines and non-standard atmospheric conditions.
I can't imagine any certification agency accepting 'first principles' data for inclusion in a flight manual or any computer program for predicting performance.
