I think disposition could play a key factor in how we place a financial value on records. We already value information with a time factor, we could use that premise to convert to $$.
If we used a Cost Replacement Value model as a baseline & factor in if a record is "Significant", "Other" &/or Vital as well as Hardcopy/Electronic, we could at least take that financial value to show how much our Information Assets would cost if we had to replace.
Obviously, this is a broad valuation model. Individual appraisals on files could/should be possible but I think it would work as a baseline to value our information as an asset.
