When I generate the Space Type Report through the Openstudio plugin on sketchup, there is almost 1200sqft of extra space on a floor. Why?

I did Extensions > OpenStudio User Scripts > Reports > Space Type Report. The area on building story 2 comes out to be 12000sqft and the area on building story 3 is 10000sqft. The geometry of building story 2 and 3 is identical. Why is the reported area so different?

Also, when running simulation on OpenStudio and energyPlus, the area reported is different for both by about 250sqft. How do openStudio and EnergyPlus calculate the floor area? Does this directly affect outputs such as site energy?

Any help would be much appreciated.
