I am depreciating a vehicle on an S-Corporation since 2017. For the year 2024, the vehicle is no longer being used in the business and has not been sold. How do I remove it from the depreciation schedule ?

Sometimes, easy is not so easy.
Is the vehicle titled in the name of the business? If so, is it still covered on company's insurance?
If fully depreciated, (and you didn't have some of that decades old ITC where you reduced depreciable basis), dispose of it with a $.00 selling price.
I've been known to sell the asset in the prior year (after filing return), at no gain, and THEN transfer that client to current year to begin work on it.
If you use FAM, it is easy...just right click on asset and hit delete. And make necessary general journal entries to reflect the 'abandonment'.

"Last time I saw such an asset "no longer used in the business" it was because the daughter took it to college with her..."
Come on, don't go kidding around - that kind of stuff never happens with our sophisticated client base 😜
