Give back proceeds (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

return

I believe this is a double definition.

'give back' is the first definition.
('return' can be a synonym of 'give back')

'proceeds' is the second definition.
('return' can be a synonym of 'proceeds')

(Other definitions for return that I've seen before include "Go/come back" , "election to parliament" , "Come/go back" , "Retort" , "Reappear" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
