Fast Mathematics Answer

The owner of a golf course 'bout near Fort Payne was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help.

 He called her into his office and said, "You graduated from the University of Alabama at Huntsville and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000,  minus 14%, how much would you take off?"


The secretary thought a moment,  then replied, "Everything but my earrings."
