If you re-check the developer agreement [1], you will notice in section 4 (Pricing, fees and payment) that besides the 20% commission, taxes are also deducted from the total:

"... we will provide you with a report of the number of copies of each of your Apps sold and the amount of any payment due, which shall be the fee multiplied by the number of copies sold less any applicable taxes and our commission."

In your particular case, from what I could check, both $4.99 sales were also affected by a $0.8 VAT tax (which vary depending on the billing address/country of the buyer).

Hope that helps make things clearer. If this is not appropriately described or detailed in the report you received, feel free to file a bug asking for it to be improved.
