hiding $0 fixed asset accounts

I have an asset account that has subaccounts with $70K in assets and $70K in amortization, so the higher level account is $0.  I want to hide this account on the balance sheet, but inactivating it doesn't work since the subaccounts have dollar values in them.  I can just merge them into the higher-level account but I would like to know if that's the best way to do it from a management accounting best practice perspective.  Thanks!
