Anticipate deposits being taken in payment (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

foresee

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'anticipate' is the definition.
(I know that anticipate can be written as foresee)

'deposits being taken in payment' is the wordplay.
'deposits' becomes 'ores' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'being taken in' is an insertion indicator.
'payment' becomes 'fee' (payment for a job).
'ores' inserted inside 'fee' is 'FORESEE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for foresee that I've seen before include "Prognosticate" , "divine" , "Predict" , "witness in advance?" , "Expect" .)
