(b) In determining whether accountings may be waived or filed less frequently than annually, the court shall consider:
- (1) The relationship of the conservator to the protected person;
- (2) The value of the estate and annual gross income and other receipts within the conservator’s control;
- (3) The amount of the bond;
- (4) The extent to which the estate has been deposited under an arrangement requiring an order of court for its removal;
- (5) The extent to which the income and receipts are payable directly to a facility responsible for the care or custody of the protected person;
- (6) The extent to which the income and receipts are derived from state or federal programs that require periodic accountings;
- (7) Whether a guardian has been appointed, and if so, whether the guardian has presented reports as required; and
- (8) Any other factors which the court deems appropriate.
