How do rising interest rates impact corporate balance sheets?

In an environment of rising interest rates, lets assume we have a few scenarios:

Company A: Low leverage (minimal debt to equity), high cash, high A/R, low A/P Company B: High leverage, High cash, High A/R, High A/P Company C: High Leverage, low cash, high A/R, low A/P

How will each company be impacted in this situation? Would also like to know the impact from an ROE / ROA perspective.
