in thousands | September 30, 2022 |  | September 30, 2021
Homes under construction | $ | 785,742 |  |  | $ | 648,283 |
Land under development | 731,190 |  |  | 648,404 |
Land held for future development | 19,879 |  |  | 19,879 |

Capitalized interest | 109,088 |  |  | 106,985 |

Total owned inventory | $ | 1,737,865 |  |  | $ | 1,501,602 |
Homes under construction include homes substantially finished and ready for delivery and homes in various stages of construction, including costs of the underlying lot, direct construction costs and capitalized indirect costs. As of September 30, 2022, we had 2,688 homes under construction, including 887 spec homes totaling $246.5 million (793 in-process spec homes totaling $208.7 million, and 94 finished spec homes totaling $37.8 million). As of September 30, 2021, we had 2,912 homes under construction, including 576 spec homes totaling $116.4 million 542 in-process spec homes totaling $105.2 million, and 34 finished spec homes totaling $11.2 million). Land under development consists principally of land acquisition, land development and other common costs. These land related costs are allocated to individual lots on a pro-rata basis, and the lot costs are transferred to homes under construction when home construction begins for the respective lots. Certain of the fully developed lots in this category are reserved by a customer deposit or sales contract. Land held for future development consists of communities for which construction and development activities are expected to occur in the future or have been idled and are stated at cost unless facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. All applicable carrying costs, such as interest and real estate taxes, are expensed as incurred. Land held for sale includes land and lots that do not fit within our homebuilding programs and strategic plans in certain markets, and land is classified as held for sale once certain criteria are met (refer to Note 2). These assets are recorded at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less costs to sell (net realizable value). The amount of interest we are able to capitalize depends on our qualified inventory balance, which considers the status of our inventory holdings. Our qualified inventory balance includes the majority of our homes under construction and land under development but excludes land held for future development and land held for sale (see Note 6 for additional information on capitalized interest). Total owned inventory by reportable segment is presented in the table below as of September 30, 2022 and 2021:

(b) Projects in progress amount includes capitalized interest and indirect costs that are maintained within our Corporate and unallocated segment. Inventory Impairments The following table presents, by reportable segment, our total impairments and abandonment charges for the periods presented:
| Fiscal Year Ended September 30,
in thousands | 2022 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Land Held for Sale: |  |  |  |  |
West | $ | 1,303 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 89 |
Southeast | — |  |  | — |  |  | 8 |
Corporate and unallocated(a) | 565 |  |  | — |  |  | 1,160 |
Total impairment charges on land held for sale | $ | 1,868 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,257 |
Abandonments: |  |  |  |  |
West | $ | 289 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 923 |
East | 143 |  |  | 465 |  |  | 82 |
Southeast | 663 |  |  | 388 |  |  | 641 |
Total abandonments charges | $ | 1,095 |  |  | $ | 853 |  |  | $ | 1,646 |
Total impairments and abandonment charges | $ | 2,963 |  |  | $ | 853 |  |  | $ | 2,903 |
(a) Amount represents capitalized interest and indirects balance that was impaired. Capitalized interest and indirects are maintained within our Corporate and unallocated segment. Projects in Progress Impairments We assess our projects in progress inventory for indicators of impairment at the community level on a quarterly basis. If indicators of impairment are present for a community with more than ten homes remaining to close, we perform a recoverability test by comparing the expected undiscounted cash flows for the community to its carrying value. If the aggregate undiscounted cash flows are in excess of the carrying value, the asset is considered to be recoverable and is not impaired. If the carrying value exceeds the aggregate undiscounted cash flows, we perform a discounted cash flow analysis to determine the fair value of the community, and impairment charges are recorded if the fair value of the community's inventory is less than its carrying value. No project in progress impairments were recognized during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020. Land Held for Sale Impairments Impairments on land held for sale generally represent write downs of these properties to net realizable value based on sales contracts, letters of intent, current market conditions and recent comparable land sale transactions, as applicable. Absent an executed sales contract, our assumptions related to land sales prices require significant judgment because the real estate market is highly sensitive to changes in economic conditions, and our estimates of sale prices could differ significantly from actual results. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $1.9 million land held for sale impairment charges related to two held for sale communities in the West segment. No land held for sale impairment charges were recognized during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $1.3 million land held for sale impairment charges related to two held for sale communities: one in the West segment and one in the Southeast segment. Abandonments From time-to-time, we may determine to abandon lots or not exercise certain option agreements that are not projected to produce adequate results or no longer fit with our long-term strategic plan. Additionally, in certain limited instances, we are forced to abandon lots due to seller non-performance, or permitting or other regulatory issues that do not allow us to build on those lots. If we intend to abandon or walk away from a property, we record an abandonment charge to earnings for the deposit amount and any related capitalized costs in the period such decision is made. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, we recognized $1.1 million, $0.9 million and 1.6 million in abandonment charges, respectively.
