If all of the THEN and ELSE expressions have the same non-character data type, the result of the CASE expression is that type. For example, if all of the THEN and ELSE expressions have an INTEGER type, the result type of the CASE expression is INTEGER.

For information about how the precision and scale of DECIMAL results are calculated, see Binary Arithmetic Result Data Types.
