(c) Each funeral service licensee shall give to the person or persons making funeral arrangements a written price statement signed by the licensee or a representative of the funeral establishment or branch establishment. The written statement shall be provided at the time funeral arrangements are made or before the merchandise or services are provided. This written statement shall show the following information:

(1) The price of the service that the family has selected and the services that are included in it;

(2) the price of each of the supplemental items of service or merchandise, or both, requested; and

(3) the amount involved for each of the items for which the funeral director can advance funds as an accommodation to the family, insofar as any of the above can be specified at that time.

(d) Funeral service rental caskets shall be separately designated with a card or brochure in each casket and shall be designated as rental caskets on the casket price list.
