Do links to post pages also effect domain authority?

Do links to inner pages effect domain authority?
If I get a link from another website to a post on my site, example - www.site.com/post-article-name
Will the link benefit the domain authority of my site as a whole? Or must links go to www.site.com (the home page) in order to increase DA of my domain?
I understand that the page authority would increase for a link to www.site.com/post-article-name - correct? But would the link to this post ALSO benefit the domain authority metric?

Thanks

    It would help, but don't do it just because you are trying to increase DA. Your DA is not a ranking factor. It is a waste of time to focus on it.

    it is useless and not recommened. the most way to increase your DA is seo and your age of site.

      You really should stop posting. Everything you post makes zero sense.

    Thank you for your reply. So a great link to a post will help boost my sites DA? I ask just because I think it will help attract more opportunities.

      Yes. DA is such a poor metric that any link, good or bad, to any part of your site will increase your DA. If you must use a metric it may be better to look at Trust Flow from Majestic.com

      Ideally you want to find trusted links and link them to the most relevant page of your site.
