No, I didn't think so...

I finished but didn't fully understand the parsing of 2d. The first part is straightforward but I wasn't sure how the answer related to the second part of the clue. I can sort of see how it could be similar if used in a sentence if it had 'ed' on the end.

It's what is in your pay packet (remember those) after deductions.

earn or gain (an amount of money) as a net profit.
"I would hope to clear £50,000 profit from each match"
synonyms: net, make a profit of, realize a profit of, take home, pocket;
