depends on how you go about it. I put together my 200 gallon for under 100$. Free jacuzzi, free ballast tank, free pump, free quilt batting. I think the only thing we bought was the pvc (we already had some fiberglass and resin laying around).
If you upscale it to 5000 gallons here's the rough figures:
200$ pump (low electrical use 2250 gph)
300$ liner
200$ for filter media
12$ for a 55 gallon barrel
60$ for bulkhead fittings (may be less depends on what you're doing and the size of the holes I only use the ones from winnipeg plastics 3" is 20$).
Pvc parts and glue ect.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now if your going tropical with this pond add in 1600$ for a pond heater run off natural gas
You can also make a heat exchanger though I've not done this before so I can't ballpark it.

Anything that can hold water can be a pond.
