Getting value in element - result not the same as on screen

Hi,

I have a Java Webdriver script designed to enter values in a website and to extract the answers generated.

My problem is that the Webdriver script finds the answers on the webpage but not all the answers/results that Webdriver finds are the same as the on screen result.

The expected result and what is shown on the page is as follows...
Total = $118.67
postal is $86.57
cover is $32.10

The actual that Webdriver returns is...
Total = $118.67
postal is $50.80
cover is $14.05

I cannot figure out why Webdriver is returning a result which is different from what I can see how on screen.

I have included my script, the website is open to the public so you can run the script yourself.

I am using Webdriver 2.29

Opps...sorry guys, I forgot to declare the base url in my last script, here is the correct script.
