    On the Balance Sheet. It is not a Sch F deductible expense.

    Are you sure it didn't come with depreciable improvements, like field tile?  I love the image that field tile creates in my mind.

    If you're not preparing a Balance Sheet for your client, you can enter the land as Non-depreciated Asset on the depreciation schedule.
