Business & farm

This is all balance sheet.  It appears that the interest was never paid and just accumulated; in a case like this the IRS may want to take a position that this was equity from the beginning so converting makes sense.

Additionally, it appears that the other member contributing more $$ as well, the economics stay the same; which is good.

On your balance sheet you would just make the following entry; Dr. Member Loan Cr. Member Equity.  Essentially you are just reclassing the loan to equity.
