Explicit and Implicit costs should be considered when measuring economic profit because a business must cover its opportunity costs as well as its out-of-pocket expenses to be truly profitable. Economic profit consists of revenue minus implicit (opportunity) and explicit (monetary) costs. Explicit costs are monetary costs a firm has. Implicit costs are the opportunity costs of a firm’s resources.
Given:
1997 - 5,000

2012 - 1997 = 15 years
(9,500/5,000)^1/15 - 1
1.9^1/15 - 1
1.043718 - 1 = 0.043718
0.043718 * 100% = 4.3718%
