Trading income as business income | Depreciation

In case of trading shown as business income, for how many years can I claim depreciation for the same laptop?
Y1 - 40% depreciation
Y2 - Again 40% depreciation? Is it on the original invoice value? or the already depreciated value after Y1?

Written down Value.
