That's a pretty narrow focus for determining ROI.
What about time spent accessing paper VS. online documents?
If you never have to retrieve the Records, that might be a fair cost
comparison. Most of my clients like to be able to retrieve their Records,
which is much more costly with paper than electronic.
I managed an imaging project for the City of San Antonio that had an ROI of
4.5 months on a $40 K project.

Subject: Re: Cost Recovery for Scanning
A side note: fresh back from a PRISM International conference (trade
association for commercial storage/destruction of records). One
panelist, long in the business, did some calculations and found that
in comparing $ .25 per box per month storage to scanning the
contents of that same box, it would take 9 years of storage to match
the cost of scanning. Believe it--or not.
