I think there is something wrong with the trariff calculation in 1.03c. I tested it by letting pop's base income equals 0. So, theoretically the total income of the people of the nation would definitely not exceed the value of export. But the tariff(the rate here is 100%) is too high(even 3 times larger than the nation export) and I wonder where the money comes from? If you amplify the people's need(for, change the need for regular cothes = 200), the trariff will be higher.

Are you looking a it at the start of the scenario?

Pops have some money reserves at the start and will use them up quite quickly causing a lot of tariff income in the early stages of the game.
 
I don't see the problem ,one must note tax effeciancy ,wich is low at start especially for unciv's.This tax effeciancy represents a abstration in game ,that if you tax the people 50% on low tax effeciancy ,that you won't get that 50% ,but maybe only 20% ,because supposedly the people are hiding thing's.Later tax effeciancy's are there to represent better cencus ,better tax bureacracy etc. .Under that thought it would be easy to understand how one can earn more with tarrifs from the people than with taxes.
