A
  1. Decrease SE in total, All TS transactions decrease total equity
  2. Increase Book Value per share bc
    BV per share is based on outstanding common shares which means that when they are “repurchased” the overall number of shares outstanding is LESS, SO the numerator is reduced by the cost to purchase the shares

Effect is an increase in book value per share

28
