Ideally, the deceased's estate will cover any costs of the funeral; most either have plans established like insurances, or set aside a certain amount from their holdings. Some do not set up such a system, and in that case it is basically up to whoever organises the funeral to find the money.
Well if you go to the actual funeral department they should hepl with the cost but sometimes going to a building society for help ar just going to fifnancial advisors from your own bank
Before meeting with a funeral director regarding your preference for a green or natural funeral, prepare with the following:Research funeral homes in your area and select one that is friendly towards natural burial. You can find a list of funeral homes that have taken steps to becoming greener through the Green Burial Council's Find a Provider link.Create a budget so you can talk about funeral costs up front. Be specific when looking at prices. For example, If you need help with transportation, ask how much that will cost. If you need help filing the death certificate, find out what their processing fee is. Remember, when you ask for a General Price List in-person or over the phone, funeral directors are obligated (by FTC regulations) to provide it to you. If you don't have the time or patience to call all the funeral homes in your area, quickly compare funeral prices along with funeral home ratings and reviews, using the eFuneral.com free funeral home comparison tool.Make sure you have any documents - legal or personal - that state the natural burial wishes of the decedent. If you do not have these, that's fine too. But if you do, the funeral director will ensure your loved one's wishes are honored.Remember that funeral directors are only there to help; to provide guidance and organization during what can obviously be a stressful, upsetting, and overwhelming time. When you find a funeral director with whom you feel comfortable, let them help you.

No. The cost of the plot is a separate cost negotiated with the cemetery, not the funeral home. Though in many cases the funeral home can make the arrangements for you.
Depending on how it is presented i think it would be acceptable. It should all be approached in a voluntary/helpful contribution and in no way ask for a specific amount.
A will makes no difference other than to indicate if the deceased parent left funds either money or life insurance to pay the cost of their funeral. They are still you're parent, so the adult child should pay, that is the moral stance. However, legally, the children do not have the funds to pay for the funeral, then they can ask the government for help. Most governments usually will provide for the cost of a basic funeral for a deceased, if that deceased left no means from their estate to meet their own funeral costs.
