I have many T1's, the loop charge is determined based on your distance from
the CO.  Save for two exceptions, all my T1's cost me $195/mo for the loop.
LD, for me, is $0.0119 for interstate and $0.0587 for intrastate.  Your LD
rates will vary widely depending on reseller and your call volume.  I've
seen interstate as low as .008. Intrastate is always more expensive because
of some regulations or something. If you expect to make mostly intrastate
calls I suggest routing your calls out of state then back in.

A channel bank may run you $500 or more. A 24-port FXS card (I believe) will
remove the need for the channel bank.
