I have a rental building that has 6 months left of depreciation on its 27.5 year class life. That final depreciation amount is not showing up on Sch E and the depreciation tables. Why?

Does the prior depreciation indicate it is already fully depreciated?

The "Prior Depreciation" amount is less than the Cost Basis amount; with the difference being the final half year amount.  Yet the "Current Depreciation" column shows zero.

Weird.  And you've confirmed that this is the last year (it would not calculate if for some reason last year was the last year)?  Double check the "placed in service date".

Otherwise, it seems to be a rather bizarre glitch.
