Question Increased minima for Select[+]?

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen!

Now having achieved Select (in record time? ), I have a new, but honest, question that I hope I'll be forgiven:

(I tried searching, but no one seems to have asked before).

Select and Select Plus get a 25% and 50% point bonus, respectively, on travel.

Are the minima raised by the same percentages?
For example, consider a hypothetical $4 trip.
Entry level get (8 or 100 points, whichever is greater).
Do Select get (10 or 125 points, whichever is greater) or just (10 or 100 points, whichever is greater)?
Do Select Plus get (12 or 150 points, whichever is greater) or just (12 or 100 points, whichever is greater)?

I guess the question boils down to whether they apply the bonus first, then the minimum, or vice-versa.

Thanks!
Chris

They apply the minimum rule first for everyone, then calculate any Select or Select + bonuses on that number.
