There's a Lambda pricing calculator here https://s3.amazonaws.com/lambda-tools/pricing-calculator.html that has the option of ignoring free tier.

I can see where they're coming from with their statement, and I can see where you're coming from with yours.
The Calculator is trying to guard against the situation where you spec (say) an EC2 t2.micro and it doesn't know if you're a new customer in your first month (so it's free) or your 13th month (you have to pay for it).
Lambda is always free for the first million requests every month, and the calculator thinks it's safe to assume you haven't consumed any of this before starting your calculation.
Even if you put in a dummy entry in of 1000000 requests, each 100ms duration, each allocated 4096MB memory (leave ephemeral at default 512MB) which would exactly consume all the free tier allocation, the next time you add another lambda item it assumes that new calculation is starting from scratch.
This is annoying, it would be nice if they could add an "ignore free tier" radio button to it.
