Wildhorse Inc., a publicly accountable enterprise that reports in accordance with IFRS, issued convertible bonds for the first time on
January 1, 2023. The $1 million of six-year, 10% (payable annually on December 31, starting December 31, 2023), convertible bonds
were issued at 109. The bonds would have been issued at 98 without a conversion feature and yielded a higher rate of return. The
bonds are convertible at the investor's option.
The company's bookkeeper recorded the bonds at 109 and, based on the $1,090,000 bond carrying value, recorded interest expense
using the effective interest method for 2023. He prepared the following amortization table, believing that the yield was 9%:

You were hired as an accountant to replace the bookkeeper in November 2024. It is now December 31, 2024, the company's year end,
and the CEO is concerned that the company's debt covenant may be breached. The debt covenant requires Wildhorse to maintain a
maximum debt to equity ratio of 2.3. Based on the current financial statements, the debt to equity ratio is 2.6. The CEO recalls hearing
that convertible bonds should be reported by separating out the liability and equity components, yet he does not see any equity
amounts related to the bonds on the current financial statements. He has asked you to look into the bond transactions recorded and
make any necessary adjustments. He would also like you to explain how any adjustments that you make affect the debt to equity ratio.

Determine the amount that should have been reported in the equity section of the statement of financial position at January 1,
2023, for the conversion right, considering that the company must comply with IFRS.
