Final value fees are Higher

I am selling on this marketplace since long but under management payment system after selling an item on ebay charging more money. 

 

An example for the audience : Let say Item sold price $40 free shipping + ebay collects Sales Tax $3.68 =Total $43.68 from buyer. 

 

Now interesting part when ebay deducts fees,  calculating total amount ($43.68 x 12.35% ) +0.30 = 5.39+0.30 = $5.69 and deducts from item sold price that is $40-5.69 =  $34.31 losing more money.  Ebay never deducts final value fees from $43.68, my point is if a seller does put sales tax money in his pocket why ebay calculates its charges from total amount, not from item sold price?  If charging from item sold price it would be $5.24 and after deducting would be $34.76  So the difference would be $0.45  seller paying more. 

 

May be I am wrong but in this way I am losing more money. 

Have anyone noticed this calculation?

Yes, we have. When sales tax is above 5.7%, fees under MP are higher. When sales tax is 5.7% or below, fees under PayPal would be lower.
