You count up your points. If you lay down a word and none of the letters in your word are on bonus squares, then you count up the points listed on each letter. If there is a bonus square under one of the tiles you placed, then you will do what it says... double the word score or the letter score, etc. You do count the points for previously laid tiles that make up part of any words that you have formed, but you do not reuse the bonuses underneath those tiles. See the link to the wikipedia article for more information about Scrabble. If you scroll down, there is a "scoring" section. Also, bonuses are restricted to a single play, not a single word. For example, If my opponent plays TUB directly under a double word score, and and I play SPUD with the S above the T, I get to double the scores for both SPUD and S(TUD), with the same double word square under the S.
