All cash flows other than the initial investment occur at the end of periods.

All cash flows generated by the investment project are immediately reinvested at a rate of return equal to the discount rate.

Explanation:

Net present value method: In this method, the initial investment is subtracted from the discounted present value cash inflows. If the amount comes in positive than the project is beneficial for the company otherwise not.

In the net present value, the yearly cash flows other than the initial investment is occur at the end of the period as all the yearly cash flows are discounted at the present value factor.

And, the discount rate is equal to the rate of return

So, these two statements are correct.
