 (a)  A corporation shall prepare annual financial statements, which may be consolidated or combined statements of the corporation and one (1) or more of its subsidiaries, as appropriate, that include a balance sheet as of the end of the fiscal year and an income statement for that year. If the financial statements are prepared for the corporation on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles, the annual financial statements must also be prepared on that basis. If requested in writing by any member, the corporation shall furnish such statements to the member as set out in subsection (c).

 (b)  If annual financial statements are reported upon by a public accountant, the public accountant's report must accompany them. If not, the statements must be accompanied by the statement of the president or the person responsible for the corporation's financial accounting records:

      (1)  Stating the president's or other person's reasonable belief as to whether the statements were prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles and, if not, describing the basis of preparation; and

      (2)  Describing any respects in which the statements were not prepared on a basis of accounting consistent with the statements prepared for the preceding year.

 (c)  A corporation shall mail the annual financial statements to each requesting member within one (1) month after notice of the request; provided, that with respect to the financial statements for the most recently completed fiscal year, the statements shall be mailed to the member within four (4) months after the close of the fiscal year.
