Miscalculate also the commission (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

errand

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

'miscalculate also' is the wordplay.
'miscalculate' becomes 'err' (I've seen this before).
'also' becomes 'and' (I've seen this before).
'err'+'and'='ERRAND'

(Other definitions for errand that I've seen before include "Short journey to get or carry message" , "run one" , "Short delivery journey" , "Messenger's job" , "purposeful journey" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
