(a) Whenever the commissioner has reasonable cause to believe that a motor club is insolvent or is transacting its business in a fraudulent manner, he may demand from the club a statement under oath setting forth its assets and liabilities. He may, for the purpose of verifying the correctness of such statement, examine the books and affairs of the club.

(b) If such statement is not furnished within 20 days from the time of such demand by the commissioner, or if, upon the examination of such records, the statement furnished or any record examined is found to contain any willful misstatement of fact, the expense of the examination shall be paid by the motor club.

(c) Whenever any foreign motor club applies for admission, the commissioner may make, or cause to be made by the motor club regulatory authority of its domiciliary state, an examination of the applicant’s motor club business and affairs. Whenever such an examination is made, all of the provisions of Article 4 (commencing with Section 730) Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Division 1 of this code not inconsistent with this part shall be applicable.
