    The author studies the properties of the functional Volterra integral equation \(\phi (x)=f(x)+\int^{\lambda x}_{0}g(x,y,\phi (y))dy,\quad 0<\lambda <1,\) and the corresponding multidimensional equation. Sufficient conditions are given for the uniqueness of the solution, and an iterative process is provided for the construction of the solution, together with error estimates. In addition bounds are provided on the solution. The results obtained are illustrated by means of the pantograph equation.
