""The recent hurricanes in Florida are bringing financial gain to California citrus growers. Due to extensive damage to the Florida citrus crop, California citrus products are commanding their highest prices ever." Which of the following statements best explains the economics of this quotation?"

The supply of Florida oranges decreased, causing their price to increase, which then increased the demand for substitute California oranges.

Explanation:

In economics,  there is a correlation between demand and supply. The two entities pool against each other until the market finds an equilibrium price.

When the demand of a product is high and the supply is low. The prices will go up.

For Florida, due to the extensive damage on their citrus fruits. The state was low in the supply of the oranges hence the prices increased.

Despite the high prices the supply could not meet the demand and it was substituted by California oranges which were sold at high price.

Hence bringing financial gain to citrus growers in California.
