Allushta [10]

Answer:

Intragroup.

Explanation:

A manager can be defined as an individual who is saddled with the responsibility of providing guidance, support, supervision, administrative control, as well as acting as a role model or example to the employees working in an organization by being morally upright.

Generally, managers are typically involved in taking up leadership roles and as such are expected to be build a strong relationship between their employees or subordinates by creating a fair ground for effective communication and sharing of resources and information. Also, they are required to engage their staff members (entire workforce) in the most efficient and effective manner.

A functional (departmental) organizational structure is a type of structure used to organize staffs by dividing them into various departments based on their skill set, roles or functions and knowledge.

These departments which are vertically structured may include, finance, IT, sales and marketing, research and development, customer service etc. Also, the various departments are headed by a functional manager who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing, managing and reporting to the executive management.

In this scenario, two managers in the same department of a company disagree on whether to outsource the development of a new product or staff it internally. Thus, this is an example of intragroup conflict because its happening within the same department of an organization having common goals and interests.

An intragroup conflict can be defined as a type of conflict that arises between individuals belonging to the same team or group.

Sliva [168]

The convexity of the bond is 61.810 and the duration of the bond is 7.330 years.                                                                                                      

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • A newly issued bond has a maturity of 10 years. It pays a 7.7% coupon rate. The coupon payments will receive each year. Using the coupon payments the year will be reduced.
  • The maturity year will get reduced. So the duration of the bond is approximately 7.330 years. If the bond is sold at par value the convexity can be calculated using the number of years.
  • So the convexity of the bond is 61.810.
