Wow, you made money!
Cash back is earned on the full amount charged to the card, which is your payroll and vendor payments plus the processing fee.
Tax write-off is your tax rate times the full processing fee, since the fee is a deductible business expense.
Cash yield is your total monthly payroll and vendor payments × yield × days ÷ 365. It's what your cash keeps earning until the card bill is due.
Bulk pay/early pay discount applies only to the vendor payments you enter in that box, up to your monthly vendor expenses. It's the price break a vendor gives for buying in volume or paying up front, which the card lets you do while your cash keeps earning.
