Concept:
Current to Voltage Source Transformation
Consider a practical current source of constant current I amperes with a parallel internal resistance Rint, it can be converted into an equivalent voltage source as follows.
Analysis:
Given;
A Norton equivalent circuit consists of a 100 μA current source(I) in parallel with a 10 kΩ resistance(Rint). 
Then as per source transformation of current to voltage source;
VTH = IRint = (100 μA × 10 KΩ ) = 1 V
