Base Points Calculation

I just had a whole month of stays post, which I had to call in about because of the glitch the Hyatt OC had with their $69 rates. I'm just noticing that the base points calculation is all over the place. Disregarding the Diamond 30% bonus, the base points should be identical as all the stays were for one night at the same rate (and the folios also were nearly identical with no extra charges).

Of the base points posted, however, almost no two were alike! I had amounts of 403, 333, 427, 451, 345, 449, 591, 501 and 900 (for two nights). How are these supposedly calculated? I know it's supposed to be 5 pts/$1, but is it on the folio total or just on the base rate? As noted I didn't add charges or anything else to the room on any of the stays.
