Yes it possible would have to pay some federal income tax on any gain from the sale of this land. This will depend on how long you have held the land after it was inherited and your adjusted cost basis of the land when it is sold and the use of the land before it was sold.

I'm not absolutely sure with the State of Michigan but the Federal income tax, you are required to show income on property sold whether or not the property was inherited.

You purchased land 20 years ago for 20000 and this year sold it for 17000 so do you have to pay taxes on the 17000 this year?

No. This should be treated as a capital gain/loss. If you bought the land for $20,000 and sold it for $17,000 you do not have any income or a gain. On the contrary, you have a $3,000 capital loss which can be used to offset some of your income and decrease your taxes.
