be taken out and used for other purposes. Irrevocable - the funds may ONLY be used for funeral
expenses, so they may not be removed for other purposes.



Differentiate between an executor and an administrator. ANS An Executor is named in the will to
settle the estate. An Administrator is named by a probate court to settle the estate.



Give an example of the principle of ademption. ANS If property is not owned by the decedent or
that is no longer owned by the decedent at the time of death, is listed in the will, it cannot be given to
the beneficiary since the decedent does not own it at the time of death. Example: If you own a car
and sell it two weeks before death, but fail to remove it from the will, it cannot be given to a
beneficiary because it isn't mine.



If the funeral home prefers, may they attach the casket price list to the General Price List? ANS
Yes, but the casket price list is given for retention with the General Price List


Can the funeral home offer a package price for arrangements that include the "traditional" funeral
except the deceased will be cremated instead of buried? If the funeral home can offer this package,
can they charge less for this package then the price would be if the items were purchased separately?
ANS Yes, they can charge less for the combination then the component parts, as McDonald's
charges less for value meals then for the component parts.

, List the 3 situations for which the funeral home can charge for embalming. ANS 1. Family
request; 2. Required by law (usually for disinfection purposes); 3. If you are unable to contact the

body at sea? ANS 100 fathoms = 600 feet



When must the Casket Price List be offered to the consumer? ANS Prior to or at the beginning of
any discussion of caskets and prior to entering the casket selection room.



Paraphrase the mandatory Disclosure of the Outer Burial Container Price List. ANS In most
areas of the country, outer burial containers are not required by law. Some cemeteries do require the
purchase of an outer burial container to prevent the settling of the ground. If an outer burial container
is required, we will explain why on the statement of goods and services.



Define the Quasi-Property theory as it relates to dead bodies. ANS The Quasi-property theory
