On January 1, 2020, when the fair value of its common shares was $85 per share, Cullumber Corp. issued $11 million of 9% convertible debentures due in 20 years. The conversion option allowed the holder of each $1,000 bond to convert the bond into 4 common shares. The debentures were issued for $11.7 million. The bond payment's present value at the time of issuance was $9.2 million and the corporation believes the difference between the present value and the amount paid is attributable to the conversion feature. On January 1, 2021, the corporation's common shares were split 2 for 1, and the conversion rate for the bonds was adjusted accordingly. On January 1, 2022, when the fair value of the corporation's common shares was $140 per share, holders of 35% of the convertible debentures exercised their conversion option. Cullumber Corp. applies ASPE, and uses the straight-line method for amortizing any bond discounts or premiums.

Current Attempt in Progress
On January 1, 2020, when the fair value of its common shares was $85 per share, Cullumber Corp. issued $11 million of 9%
convertible debentures due in 20 years. The conversion option allowed the holder of each $1,000 bond to convert the bond into 4
common shares. The debentures were issued for $11.7 million. The bond payment's present value at the time of issuance was $9.2
million and the corporation believes the difference between the present value and the amount paid is attributable to the conversion
feature. On January 1, 2021, the corporation's common shares were split 2 for 1, and the conversion rate for the bonds was adjusted
accordingly. On January 1, 2022, when the fair value of the corporation's common shares was $140 per share, holders of 35% of the
convertible debentures exercised their conversion option. Cullumber Corp. applies ASPE, and uses the straight-line method for
amortizing any bond discounts or premiums.

bondholders. On that date, the fair value of a similar bond without the conversion feature is $870 per bond. Prepare the journal
entry using the book value method. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent
