Credit scores are calculated based on ALL the information contained in your permanent credit file. So all the data would have to be considered in order to provide a guess.

In general: Collection accounts are derogatory items whether paid or unpaid. The amount of the delinquency has less impact than the date it was last reported, or updated, or the bureau. There are certain circumstances under which paying off a collection account may lower a consumer's score. The best strategy is to negotiate a payment-for-deletion of the account. THAT would benefit both you and the collection agency.

Credit scoring software is proprietary. FICO is leased from the Fair Isaac Company. These companies are notoriously secretive about the calculations. (Otherwise, anyone could sell a credit score) Even seasoned professionals, with all available data, are only able to make a guess as to what effect certain actions, like paying off an account, would have on the score.
