Which charges may legally be shown on the Statement of Funeral Goods and Services Selected in addition to Direct Burial?

The correct answer is newspaper notices. This charge can be included on the Statement of Funeral Goods and Services Selected because it is an auxiliary service that may be requested by the family to announce the passing of the deceased. It is not intrinsic to the direct burial itself but is related to the overall funeral process and communication.

In contrast, embalmings fees, casket fees, and service charges are all directly related to the provision of funeral goods and services. Direct burial typically does not involve these additional processes, especially embalming, which is often avoided in situations where the body will not be preserved for viewing. Casket fees are also not relevant in a direct burial scenario since the focus is on simplicity and immediacy rather than elaborate services. Service charges, while pertinent, would typically be encompassed within the basic fee structure associated with the direct burial, rather than being itemized separately on this specific statement. Therefore, newspaper notices stand out as a permissible separate charge that can be included in this context.
