I'm not good at math, so try this: for each region, calculate how much of the region wealth the tax is (like Vilnius, find out what 20.8% of 6920 is) and see if all that equals the tax revenue listed in the national summary.
I think you're right and I think it's silly that it advertises the income in such a way that you really don't know how much you're getting by just looking at what's on the map. I'm not sure how it worked in the patch prior, but considering I could pay for 3 armies with just Paris I presume you got all of the region wealth + taxes.
