I heard the guy who wrote this question was a database admin who got tired of people asking him 'how many records are in this table?' all the time.

You know, this reminds me of that time I accidentally wrote a stored procedure that dropped the entire database. Ah, good times. Anyway, I'm going with option C, just to keep things interesting.

Hold up, folks. What if the INSERT statement in the stored procedure somehow fails? Then the SCOPE_IDENTITY() call would return NULL, and the log_table would still be empty. I'm going with option D on this one.

I think you're right, option D seems like the most likely outcome.

Wait, wait, wait. The question says 'No other operations are affecting the log_table.' That means there can't be any existing records in the table, right? So option A must be the correct answer. Easy peasy.

User 2: Yeah, that makes sense. Option A it is then.

User 1: I think option A is correct because there can't be any existing records in the table.

Hmm, let's see. The stored procedure is inserting a record into the log_table, so I'd expect the log_table to have one record. And the procedure is returning the SCOPE_IDENTITY() value, which should be 1. So my money's on option B.

I'm leaning towards option B as well. It makes sense based on the stored procedure.

Yeah, I agree. The log_table should have one record and the return value should be 1.

But the stored procedure only inserts a record, so I still think it's option A.

I disagree, I believe it will be option B.
