Nice funeral is arranged, this could pay for it? (4,9)
I believe the answer is:
life insurance
'this could pay for it?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'nice funeral is arranged' is the wordplay.
'arranged' indicates an anagram.
'nice'+'funeral'+'is'='nicefuneralis'
'nicefuneralis' anagrammed gives 'LIFE-INSURANCE'.

(Another definition for life insurance that I've seen is " Cover against one's demise?".)
