We capitalize interest to inventories during the period of development in accordance with ASC 835, Interest ("ASC 835"). Homebuilding interest capitalized as cost of inventories is included in cost of sales as related units or lots are sold. To the extent our homebuilding debt exceeds our qualified assets, as defined in ASC 835, we expense a portion of interest incurred. Qualified homebuilding assets consist of land, lots and homes, excluding finished unsold homes or finished models, that are under development or construction.

The following table represents interest incurred, interest capitalized, and interest expense for 2015, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):
