I guess I was just trying to figure out whether the fact that I paid more in taxes then the expected refund has any bearing on the amount I will be refunded.
It not exactly clear what you are asking. The fee for them to process the refund is $300 per ticket. Once that fee is paid then you are entitled to a refund of the entire fare plus all taxes and fees. The refund isn't calculated seperatley for the taxes and fees and the dollar amount of the airfare, taxes, and/or fees is irrelevant.

Perhaps its less confusing if you seperate the $300 from the actual refund. You pay them $300 and then they will provide you will a 100% refund of the ticket (inclusive of fare, taxes, and fees). To make things easy they just net the $300 from the refund amount instead of collecting it seperatley.
