Statement C seems off to me; I don't recall it being easy to determine the repurchase price since market conditions can vary.

I'm a bit unsure about statement B, but I think it makes sense that a share repurchase could signal management's inability to find good investments.

I remember discussing how special dividends can set a precedent for future payouts, so I think statement A might be correct.

I'm pretty confident the answer is D - a transaction begins when the first executable SQL statement is encountered. That's how I understand transactions work in Oracle 12c.

C is incorrect. Determining the repurchase price is not easy, as the company will likely need to consider various factors beyond the current market price.

A, D, and E are correct. The share repurchase allows the company to distribute cash without raising shareholders' expectations for future payouts. It also offers tax advantages compared to a special dividend in some cases. And the repurchase is binding on all shareholders, not just those who participate.
