Are there any retroactive tax benefits for a qualified business after it is certified?
No. All benefits are effective only from the date of certification. Also, there are no benefits for a business unless it is currently a "qualified business." Renewal of qualified business status must be made annually.
What kind of personal property can a qualified business buy or rent under the sales tax purchase exemption?
The purchase exemption applies to office and business equipment and supplies, furnishings, trade fixtures, repair or construction materials and all other tangible personal property purchased by a qualified business (other than motor vehicles and parts and supplies) for exclusive use or consumption on the premises of the qualified business at its zone location. Only personal property controlled by the "qualified business" qualifies for the exemption. The exemption also applies to delivery charges.
