Piecewise contractions defined by iterated function systems

Let $ϕ_1,\ldots,ϕ_n:[0,1]\to (0,1)$ be Lipschitz contractions. Let $I=[0,1)$, $x_0=0$ and $x_n=1$. We prove that for Lebesgue almost every $(x_1,...,x_{n-1})$ satisfying $0<x_1<\cdots <x_{n-1}<1$, the piecewise contraction $f:I\to I$ defined by $x\in [x_{i-1},x_i)\mapsto ϕ_i(x)$ is asymptotically periodic. More precisely, $f$ has at least one and at most $n$ periodic orbits and the $ω$-limit set $ω_f(x)$ is a periodic orbit of $f$ for every $x\in I$.
