Financial shortfall (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deficit

'financial shortfall' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for deficit that I've seen before include "Shortfall in revenue" , "Excess of expenditure over income" , "Financial shortfall" , "Amount of which total falls short" , "Excess of liabilities over assets" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
