Using the Solid Coated Pantone palette (Corel Draw 12) it gives your split exactly. I like to use an older palette which doesn’t differentiate between coated, matte and uncoated.
Just dug out my Pantone Survival Kit (solid to process) and Pantone 5825C splits down as 0,0,80,60 so who knows where the Corel built-in palette gets its splits from but it’s not the same as the Pantone specs! Having said that the CMYK colours in the Pantone solid to process book are in my opinion often nowhere near the Pantone colour. What do you do?

This older thread has a few good tips. My (admittedly old) Photoshop comes up with PMS 620C, slightly darker. 619C is a bit more lighter.
If you happen to use Illustrator, you can try this script, which sounds really good.

It’s sort of an odd color build.
620 is c0 m0 y100 k56
619 is c0 m6 y100 k47
618 is c0 m0 y91 k34
This is according to my Solid to Process swatch book.

Corel Draw gives C0 M0 Y87 K60 as Pantone 5825.
