(d) If an examination of the records of a person results in the disclosure of property reportable and deliverable under this act, the administrator may assess the cost of the examination against the holder based upon the actual hourly salary rate for each examiner involved in the examination inclusive of travel to and from the place of the examination along with necessary and actual expenses for travel and subsistence as allowed under K.S.A. 75-3201 et seq., and amendments thereto, along with any consulting, data processing or other related expenses necessary to perform the examination.
