Good African currency’s ready for younger relative (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grandson

'younger relative' is the definition.

'good african currency's ready' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'african currency's' becomes 'rands'.
'ready' becomes 'on' (if a device is on it is ready for use).
'g'+'rands'+'on'='GRANDSON'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for grandson that I've seen before include "Junior relative" , "Dons rang (anag) - relative" , "Male offspring, third generation (8)" , "Male child of one's child" , "Daughter's boy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
