Review your numbers you entered as you most likely got the decimal point in the wrong place on an income entry. 

 

So you could of entered $200 as $20,000.

Clearly you need to check over the amounts you entered and find the typo, decimal error or extra zeros you added somewhere.  Start in the income section.  This screams user error.
