Arkansas Embalming and Funeral Rules Practice Test 2026 – Complete Exam Prep

The Casket Price List (CPL) must be provided to a customer any time there is a discussion regarding pricing. This requirement ensures transparency and compliance with federal regulations set forth by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under the Funeral Rule. Providing the CPL at the onset of a pricing discussion allows consumers to make informed decisions about their options and understand the costs associated with various casket choices.

Offering the CPL before a customer is shown any caskets or before negotiations begin helps ensure that clients are well aware of the pricing and can engage in a meaningful discussion about their needs and preferences without feeling pressured. This practice is part of the commitment to ethical standards in the funeral service industry, fostering trust and clarity between the funeral provider and the family.
