The supermartingale conclusion gives
Discard the nonnegative terminal-wealth term and let . The cumulative deflated consumption increases, so monotone convergence theorem yields the state-price budget constraint
The normalization is relevant: with the right side is ; with random integrable initial deflated wealth its expectation is the unconditional budget bound.
