Supply manager and renter make new deal (13)
I believe the answer is:
rearrangement
'new deal' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'supply manager and renter' is the wordplay.
'supply' indicates anagramming the letters (in a supple way).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'manager' put after 'renter' is 'rentermanager'.
'rentermanager' is an anagram of 'REARRANGEMENT'.
'make' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rearrangement that I've seen before include "Act of changing layout of items" , "Moving around of component parts" , "Process of moving things around" , "A new ordering" , "New layout" .)
