In the given circuit, what is the value of IC if the BJT is made of Silicon? Correct Answer 2.01 mA

Consider the BJT to be in saturation. Then IC=20-0.2/2k=9.9 mA And IB=20-0.8/430k=0.044 mA IBMIN=ICSAT/β=5.09/50=0.198mA which is greater than above IB. Hence transistor is in the active region. Thus IC=βIB. VBE=0.7V IB=20-0.7/430=44.88μA IC=50×44.88=2.24 mA.
