How does purchasing upgrades affect the cost of other upgrades?

I've been noticing that when I purchase upgrades in the Manor, sometimes the price of other upgrades will increase. Do all upgrades increase all prices, or are there certain ones which affect each other? If the latter, which ones are those?

After beating the final boss, can I return to the original castle?

I've defeated the final boss in a very cheesy way (Babarian Tank with a lot of Damage Return). Now I have a hard time even getting some money in the castle of New Game Plus - is there some way to return to the old "easy" castle ?
