    The long run total cost curve of a typical firm in the perfectly competitive widget industry is:

    TC = 6,000q - 200q2 + 2q3

    where q is the output in units of widgets produced by the firm.

    The long run demand curve for widgets is estimated to be:

    P = 25,000 - 2Q

    where Q is the number of units of widgets demanded when the price of a unit of widgets is P.

    What's the value of a typical firm's long run marginal cost at equilibrium? Show the calculation of its value.
