My sister passed away and named me a beneficiary of her investment fund. Is the amount that was in the account on the date of her death the amount I should receive? Her financial advisor requested a death certificate and then based the amount I received on the day she received the death certificate which was considerably less than the amount in the account on the date of her death.

It all depends on the fund's investments and whether there was a change (buy or sell) after they received notice of your sister's death.
