I think doing this would easily pay for itself. Generally speaking, the 
later a bug is found after it has been created, the more expensive it is 
to fix. Needless to say, there's a stackoverflow question on it, 
including some references and discussion-

So any money spent on fixing bugs after the fact would likely have a 
better outcome if it was spent on trying to resolve issues earlier in 
development. Proper test covering and a set of strict code-acceptance 
requirements would help with this.
