Transpose & Grouping

Hi Everyone, hope I can get help from this problem:

  

Name     Month    Price        
One        01          10.00
One        02          11.00
Two        01          13.00
Two        02           14.00
 
I've tried a couple of transpose and cross tab rule but I can't get the result that I want. 


Name     01          02
One       10.00     11.00  
Two        13.00    14.00

You can get your desired result by using the Cross Tab tool in the below way.

I've also attached a sample file.

Thank you @JoshKushner this gave me a lot of idea. 

A follow up question, I added a new field called count

 

Name       Month         Count          Price
One             1                  2                10.00
One             2                  4                 11.00
Two             1                  3                 13.00
Two             2                  6                 14.00

And I want it to be this output:

Name     Count            1              Count             2
One            2           10.00              11.00           4
Two            3           13.00              14.00           6

 

Through your sample, I got it right but I want to know if my logic for building the solution is correct.

I want to know if this is the simplest way to do my desire output. Thank you again.

That looks absolutely right! I've included and attached my replication of what you have below:

(I've renamed the count columns to align with each month in the Join tool)
