Assume a drought in the Great Plains reduces the supply
of wheat. Since wheat is a basic ingredient in the production of
bread and potatoes are a consumer substitute for bread, we would
expect the price of wheat to:
rise, the supply of bread to increase, and the demand for
potatoes to increase.
fall, the supply of bread to increase, and the demand for
potatoes to increase.
rise, the supply of bread to decrease, and the demand for
potatoes to increase.
rise, the supply of bread to decrease, and the demand for
potatoes to decrease.
