Yes, and also as often as not, the end of scenes is also marked in this way. It gave a good strong line to end the scene with. Sometimes the couplet is followed by a short line. E.g. in Coriolanus the final couplet "Which to this hour bewail the injury/ Yet he shall have a noble memory" is followed by the single word "Assist". In Hamlet, "Take up the bodies; such a sight as this/ Becomes the field, but here shows much amiss." is followed by "Go, bid the soldiers shoot". In most cases, however, the last two lines are a rhyming couplet as they are in King Lear, Othello, Romeo and Juliet, Cymbeline, Richard III, King John, and Twelfth Night. Plays which end with epilogues (such as Henry V, Pericles, All's Well that Ends Well, and As You Like It) always end in a couplet, as the epilogues are always in rhyming couplets from beginning to end. Some plays which do not have couplets at the end are The Taming of the Shrew and Love's Labour's Lost.
There are several terms that mean easy. Easy as pie is one expression. The image is that making a pie is simple -- just toss some fruit on top of a crust and bake. Another expression is piece of cake -- again, the image is one of a dessert. Cake is fun to eat, so something that is a piece of cake would be fun and easy. Children often say "easy peasy" as a rhyming idiom. Some examples would be "That math problem was a piece of cake!," or "Riding a bike is easy as pie."

In the comedies, either there will be mass marriages or plans for mass marriages, and someone, often an authority figure, will make some general remarks about how happy everyone is. In some cases, there is a promise of more detailed explanations of matters which the audience has seen (Merchant of Venice, Cymbeline). In some there is an epilogue (As You Like It, Midsummer Night's Dream). The histories often end on the death of one king and the accession of another, with remarks about the upcoming coronation (Macbeth) and sometimes a view of the future (Henry V).
