MQDs earned will based on number of Skymiles redeemed for award divided by 100 (it has nothing to do with taxes and fees charged for award). For example, a Skymiles award that costs 10,000 miles will earn 100 MQDs. It does not matter if the award is on Delta metal or partner metal.

"Beginning January 1, 2024, SkyMiles Members can earn MQDs on Delta Award Travel tickets operated by Delta partners, in Main Cabin (or equivalent) or above, when booked through any direct Delta channel, with MQDs calculated based on miles redeemed toward the Award Ticket price divided by 100. Government-imposed taxes and fees do not earn MQDs."
