I tried to use the product calculator here

https://cloud.google.com/products/calculator/#id=f5b35a8e-b8a3-4412-a9f3-af00bfb113c6

and got a result $67.91 in Cloud SQL

anyone knows how this result comes up?

because if I refer to this page 

https://cloud.google.com/sql/pricing

it should be $52.28
===================
(db-g1-small, $0.0455)
8/5 hour (160h/month)
$0.0455 x 160 =  $7.28

$0.090 per GB/month for HDD storage capacity
500gb/month
$0.090 x 500 = $45

The grand total will be $52.28

If you scroll to the bottom of the cost calculator page, it will tell you that the costs are estimates only. The $67.91 will be for the Cloud SQL instance running 24 hours a day and seven days a week for a month.

The cost you have calculated yourself is for 160 hours a month, about 5 hours a day. The actual price might be higher or lower depending on what you are trying to implement.
