I know Marriott Points are awarded on net (not gross) amount paid; but I am not certain if Premium Pounds/Bonus Bucks is considered just a form of payment like cash, or more like a discount voucher. How does it appear on the final statement at check-out?

This question has probably been asked, I did try to google but couldn't find the answer.

TIA, Tim

yes
you will get MR on everything except taxes, this includes room rates, meals charged to your room bill, etc
the PP is treated like a cash payment

it will appear on your final bill as a payment
