The PBSO will provide funeral, burial, and related expenses to the beneficiary of a member who died in the line of duty in the amount of how many dollars?

• A. 14
• B. 40
• C. 400
• D. 4

Answer: (D)

This question tests your understanding of the line-of-duty death benefit for funeral and burial expenses—the amount provided to the beneficiary is a fixed, one-time payment to help cover immediate costs. The designated figure is four dollars, meaning the department offers a small, symbolic payment specifically for those immediate arrangements. This amount is fixed and does not vary, which is why other figures wouldn’t fit the policy. Remember that there can be other survivor benefits beyond this particular expense allowance, but the question focuses on the exact fixed amount for funeral-related costs.
