I don't get why they depreciated with 5 years life and not by 4 years as clearly stated that plant was not more than 4 years. We have to take lower of both right?

The question says: "No plant is more than 4 years old" That doesn't mean that the plant has only a four year life expectancy! That sentence is telling you that all the plant in the trial balance is still within its 5 year expected life and that none of that plant has therefore been fully depreciated You really need to be very careful how you read these questions! OK?
