EXP better off booking as AA or QR?

Hello - I'm a bit confused. I know as AA I earn $ x 11.
However, if I book as QR it says I earn 100% plus 50% bonus for I/R class and 100% plus 150% for A class. The part I don't get is the 120% status bonus.
Here is the itinerary:
1 QR 708I IADDOH
2 QR1305A DOHCAI
3 QR 1302A CAIDOH
4 QR 709R DOHIAD

Does this mean for the I/R class sectors I earn 270% of the base miles IAD-DOH 6912 and between DOH-CAI 370% of the base miles of 1276?
so...
6912 x 270% = 18662 x 2 IAD-DOH = 37324
+
1276 x 370% = 4721 x 2 DOH-CAI = 9442
TOTAL EARNED BOOKING QR = 46,766

Thanks.
