In some cases, there is a unique utility-maximizing bundle for each price and income situation; then, (,) is a function and it is called the Marshallian demand function. If the consumer has strictly convex preferences and the prices of all goods are strictly positive, then there is a unique utility-maximizing bundle.
Roy's identity reformulates Shephard's lemma in order to get a Marshallian demand function for an individual and a good from some indirect utility function.. The first step is to consider the trivial identity obtained by substituting the expenditure function for wealth or income in the indirect utility function (,), at a utility of :
In microeconomics, the Slutsky equation (or Slutsky identity), named after Eugen Slutsky, relates changes in Marshallian (uncompensated) demand to changes in Hicksian (compensated) demand, which is known as such since it compensates to maintain a fixed level of utility.

Supply chain as connected supply and demand curves. In microeconomics, supply and demand is an economic model of price determination in a market.It postulates that, holding all else equal, the unit price for a particular good or other traded item in a perfectly competitive market, will vary until it settles at the market-clearing price, where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied ...
Let's say the utility function is the Cobb-Douglas function (,) =, which has the Marshallian demand functions [2] (,) = (,) =,where is the consumer's income. The indirect utility function (,,) is found by replacing the quantities in the utility function with the demand functions thus:
[1]: 164 A useful property of the quasilinear utility function is that the Marshallian/Walrasian demand for , …, does not depend on wealth and is thus not subject to a wealth effect; [1]: 165–166 The absence of a wealth effect simplifies analysis [1]: 222 and makes quasilinear utility functions a common choice for modelling.
