What must be noted about pricing for caskets on the GPL?

  1. A complete list must be maintained by all funeral homes.

  2. The price range must declare the most expensive options only.

  3. Individual prices must be listed for every available option.

  4. Only prices for economy caskets need to be displayed.

The correct answer is: A complete list must be maintained by all funeral homes.

When discussing the pricing for caskets on the General Price List (GPL), it's essential that all funeral homes maintain a complete list of their offerings. This practice ensures transparency and compliance with regulations set forth by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The GPL is a crucial document that allows consumers to compare prices and make informed decisions regarding funeral services and products. Having a comprehensive list allows consumers to see all available options, making it easier for them to understand the range of caskets offered, from the most affordable to the more expensive choices. This transparency is designed to protect consumers from misleading pricing practices and ensure they are aware of all possible options. Therefore, requiring a complete list is fundamental for ethical operation within the funeral industry.
