The correct answer is (Its quick ratio is smaller than its current ratio.)
Explanation
For any company the quick ratio will always be equal to or smaller then the current ratio.
Current ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
Whereas the quick ratio = (Current Assets-stock-prepaid Expenses) /Current Liabilities
It can be inferred from the above formula that numerator will always be lower in quick ratio then current ratio. Being denominator the same quick ratio will always be lower.
