It looks like if you credit into AS, you'd get about 10,000 miles with the 50% class of service bonus.

I also found one routing that went YVR - PHX - MIA - SJO outbound, and SJO - DFW - PHX - LAX - YVR on the return, for $816. A slog both ways, but it looks like that'd net you 16,828 miles before any bonuses. Add the class of service bonus, and you're at ~25K miles credited to AS. Add any kind of an elite bonus, and you're at over 30K.

AKA, renew your AS MVP status for $816 and a weekend of sitting in business class on AA.
Nope! - you get about half that. Sorry your math is wrong.
YVR-PHX-MIA-SJO-DFW-PHX-LAX-YVR = 8,413
Class or service bonus would be ------> 4.206
