Collin counts 74 cans. each can is worth 5 cents. and two cans is worth 10 cents.

Collin counts out to 37, and then multiplies it by 10 which equals 370, or $3.70.
Collin goes to write down $3.70
Boss assumes Collin is writing down the number 37 as the number of cans he counted.
Boss tells Collin to stop an write down $1.85
Collin realizes the assumption and tries to explain.
Boss doesn't want to hear an explanation, Boss tells Collin to stop arguing, and do the job right.

As for the answer, after several minutes, and consulting the Math Mongoose, I believe the answer is: 'Equal to the fury of ten-thousand suns.'
