Valuation question

Question specifically to DCF for valuation.

So say I have a 10 year hold I am assuming.

I have cash flows of:

Year 0 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6 Year 7 Year 8 Year 9 Year 10

So am I capping Year 10 in Year 9 and then discounting Years 10 cash flows or am I capping Year 10 in Year 10 and discounting all cash flows Year 1-10?

Sorry if stupid and or confusing question.
