The Director may rely upon the state’s sales and use tax return filed by the operator with the state in determining the accuracy of a return filed under this subchapter. However, the Director shall be authorized to make any investigation or examination of the records and accounts of the person making the return, if the Director reasonably determines that such steps are necessary for determining the correctness of the return. The tax computed on the basis of the examination shall be the tax to be paid. If the tax due is found to be greater than that paid, the excess shall be paid to the city within ten days after receipt of a notice thereof, given either personally or sent by registered mail to the address shown on the return. If the tax paid is greater than the tax found to be due, the excess shall be refunded to the person who paid the tax to the city within ten days after determination of the refund.
