Profits to offset set price (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

receipts

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

'profits' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'offset set price' is the wordplay.
'set price' can be anagrammed to 'RECEIPTS'.
However, I'm not clear how this is indicated.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for receipts that I've seen before include "Acknowledgments of monies paid" , "proceeds" , "Income, takings" , "Notes acknowledging money paid" , "Acknowledgments of payment" .)

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