When she does this, the marginal cost of the previous shirt she produces is $ which is than the price Neha receives for each shirt she sells. The marginal cost of producing an additional shirt (that is, one more shirt than would maximize her profit) is S than the price Neha receives for each shirt she sells. Therefore, Neha's profit- maximizing quantity corresponds to the intersection of the which is curves. Because Neha is a price taker, this last condition can also be written as
