What F is worth on premium squares

The tile itself is always 4 points. Premium squares change what the play is worth, not what the tile is worth. A double letter square doubles just this tile to 8; a triple letter square triples it to 12. Word multipliers are applied afterwards, to the whole word — so F on a triple letter square inside a triple word play contributes 36 points. How premium squares stack covers the cases people get wrong.
