First we need to understand what is Quick Ratio, then we can say what will be the effect due of this change.
In Quick Ratio, we do not consider "Inventory". Because Inventory can be sold when demand is there. But, the demand for goods is an external thing. It is not in the company's hand. So, inventory is not very liquid in nature. In Quick Ratio, we try to find out how fast a company can pay its current liabilities. That's why Quick Ratio will not change in this case.
Ans:- B) The Quick Ratio does not change
