The PFCs for a JFK-LAS round-trip should be $8.50 per person and the Flight segment tax should be $7 per person, plus the $5 9/11 fee.
I have never seen a PFC added to a TB booking. For domestic travel, the total fare paid has always shown $5 roundtrip per person. I've also never seen segment taxes on TB tickets.
