The one penny change is probably a rounding discrepancy.

Some taxes are flat fees, some are percentages. It's the percentages that get rounded.

I'm guessing they have a minor bug that causes it to round one way in one screen, and another way in the next. And it probably only applies if you're exactly at that half penny mark, otherwise it would be much more common.
