The Liability portion can be calculated current value of the similar non convertible bonds and the difference between the Present value of cash flows and total proceeds from bond is the equity value.

Current Price of Non convertible bond = 99

Value of Liability = ($10 / 100) x 99 = 9.9 million or $9,900,000

Value of Equity = ($10 / 100) x (101 - 99) = 0.2 million or $200,000
