Answer 2

For Cologne, I found this page listing prices for 1-day passes. According to the Tarifberater (German only) the 1b price zone (€8.60) should get you the whole of Cologne -- I wasn't able to discover what the 1a zone would correspond to. This page (German only) gives more information on the conditions of the ticket. In short, it lets you use all local transport and regional trains until 03:00 on the day after purchase.
