Moving data in column to rows with off Excel file

Hi community, I am working with a data set that is not structured in the best way and I'm struggling with how to move values stored in rows to columns.

 

For example, the data set has revenue numbers for project for each month like this:

 

 January    
Project NameBeginningRevenueAdjustmentNetEnding
A100000010000025000125000875000
B     
C     

 

And I want the data transformed to be like this:

 

Project NameTypeMonthAmount 
ABeginningJanuary1000000 
ARevenueJanuary100000 
AAdjustmentJanuary25000 
ANetJanuary125000 
AEndingJanuary875000 

 

The actual file (sample) I am working with is below. I have tried transposing the data and summarizing but I'm totally stuck after that!
