Personal property tax is assessed on machinery, equipment, fixtures, inventory and supplies used in a business.  Every commercial enterprise must file a personal property tax return only if the assessed value is over $10,000.  After collected, the personal property tax is distributed back to local taxing districts in the same manner as real estate taxes.  In 2007, approximately 8,380 businesses filed personal property tax returns.
