The correct answer is: $3 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~A}$
$r_{L}=1000 \Omega$
$v_{i}=5 \mathrm{mV}=5 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~V}$
$\beta=60$
$I_{\text {input }}=\frac{5 \times 10^{-3}}{1000}=5 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~A}$
$\therefore I_{\text {output }}=60 \times 5 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~A}=300 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~A}$
$=3 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~A}$
