If you go to the GCP pricing calculator[0] and add one n1-standard-1 VM to GCE, it costs $24.27/month.

Add one n1-standard-1 VM to a GKE cluster and you pay $38.27/month. There is a literal line item saying "Kubernetes Engine Cost: USD 14.00".

It's not free. It's just billed under the worker.

If you choose the standard engine edition, there is no additional Kubernetes Engine Cost.

I don't follow you.

Edit: ah, I see my mistake. There's a dropdown that lists "Advanced", which apparently accounts for the $14 difference.
