I am not sure why it is listed differently on the receipt and confirmation once purchased other than some taxes are initially combined with the fare and then listed separately with the receipt.
ETA:
One of my most recent EWR-LAS-EWR tickets had a fare of $278.00 and $21.20 in tax for a total of $299.20 on the initial purchase page.
The receipt shows:
That would be due to the 7.5% tax being built into the fare rather than broken down on the fees page. On the receipt it shows up.
