You can write:
Assets:Investments 123.456 HOOL {{789.10 USD}}
beancount will covert from 789.10 USD to a per share price internally:
2019-01-18 * Bought 123.456 HOOL {6.39 USD}
2019-01-18 * Bought -789.100 USD

Yes.
2016-01-01 * "Bought"
Assets:Investments 123.456 HOOL {{789.10 USD, 2013-05-10}}
Equity:Opening-Balance
