Ok, so your employer wants $20 back.  That means you have $20 less
income and $20 less in your bank.  So you need to reduce Bank and also
reduce income with an inverted transaction:

Employer Fix
  Bank          $20
  Income                $20

This will reduce Income and reduce your bank account by $20, which is
what you want in this situation.
