interest rate and risk are the only two factors involved in your question. if money is tight, then people are gonna charge you more to use it-hence increase in interest. also if the economy is red-hot the federal reserve steps in and says, "lets raise interest rates and everyone will stop doing so much business because interest is higher". if your business venture or loan is "risky" then a company is going to charge you a higer rate of return on their money- hence you pay more for the money.
