When allowing interest rates to vary, the branch from node (n, j) to (n + 1, j + 1) and the branch from node (n, j) to (n + 1, j) have the same return because we don't want to make our model too complicated. bank investments are not risky and don't change so quickly. there are regulations controlling the rate of return and only one is allowed. the probability of going into the upstate is the same as going into the downstate.
