$25
Add Category Column & Filter a Custom Post Type

I have set up a custom post type in WP 3.1 following code which works:
function gwd_post_type_business() {
register_post_type( 'business',
array(
'label' => __('Businesses'),
'public' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
'rewrite' => true,
'hierarchical' => true,
'menu_position' => 5,
'supports' => array(
'title',
'editor',
'thumbnail',
'excerpt',
'custom-fields',
'revisions')
)
);
register_taxonomy('businesscat', 'business', array('hierarchical' => true, 'label' => __('Business Categories'), 'singular_name' => 'Category'));
}
add_action('init', 'gwd_post_type_business');


Question 1
I require the code to create a column in my admin view of the business posts that lists the category or categories that are ticked for each post.

Question 2
I require coding to create a drop down filter in my admin view that lists the categories so I can filter by category.

Requirements
What I am after is pretty much identical to the default posts categories list and filtering system standard with WP.
However I require it for my Custom Post Type.
I require the full coding that I can just cut and paste into my theme-init.php file.
