500 Questions
Advantages and disadvantages of monopolistic competition?
Asked by Wiki User
Monopolistic competition can bring the following advantages:
- There are no significant barriers to entry; therefore markets are relatively contestable.
- Differentiation creates diversity, choice and utility. For example, a typical high street in any town will have a number of different restaurants from which to choose.
- The market is more efficient than monopoly but less efficient than perfect competition - less allocatively and less productively efficient. However, they may be dynamically efficient, innovative in terms of new production processes or new products. For example, retailers often constantly have to develop new ways to attract and retain local custom.

A jar contains a bacterium which doubles every minuteThe jar was full at the end of 3 hoursHow long will it take ot filll 25 percent of the jar?
Asked by Wiki User
That depends a great deal on how you define the term "multiply". If you mean each cell divides - doubling the number of bacteria, the it would be half full at 11:59 PM and double to twice that 1 minute later at 12 AM, i.e. 2 x ½ = 1 (12 AM is midnight - see the discussion below) . Of course if by 12 AM you meant Noon - then the answer would be 11:59 AM.
If the multiplication factor is other than 2, the answer would have to be modified accordingly.
Convention has it that 12 midnight is called 12 AM, which comes after 11:59:59 pm, and thus the day starts with am. In other words the date in the calendar change at midnight and that moment is called 12 AM.
You could, of course , use a different system to avoid this confusion such as the 24-hour clock. There, the beginning of the day (12 AM or 12 midnight) is denoted by 0000 hours, and the last minute of the day starts at 2359 hours (equivalent to 11:59 pm). So the time after noon is denoted by numbers from which 1200 should be subtracted to get the time as per 12-hour clock.

What is difference between employer and employee?
Asked by Wiki User
An "employee" can be anyone who works for an employer and who receives wages for payment for their work. A "contract worker" can be, but not necessarily is, someone who's duties are set out in an agreement between them and the employer that calls for that individual to perform certain duties or obtain certain results that were set out in that contract. There is no real legal definition of an "employee" and indeed the contract worker can be considered an "employee" of the company that hires them UNLESS they are Independent Contractors who actually work for themselves and hire themselves out to companies for certain duties.
