Answer:

40% depreciation over the 4 years

10% depreciation per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of years between buying and selling is:

2020 - 2016 = 4

4 years

The amount of depreciation in the 4 years is:

AED 1,500 - AED 900 = AED 600

The percent depreciation for the 4 years is:

(1500 - 900)/1500 * 100% = 40%

The percent depreciation per year is:

40%/4 = 10%
