@simonchung  Hi Try it DAX

ExpandedTable = 
VAR MonthsToExpand = 12
VAR T1 =
    GENERATE(
        'Table A',
        VAR StartDate = 'Table A'[Start Date]
        VAR AmountPerMonth = DIVIDE('Table A'[Amount], MonthsToExpand)
        VAR Dates = ADDCOLUMNS(
            GENERATESERIES(0, MonthsToExpand - 1, 1),
            "MonthDate", EDATE(StartDate, [Value])
        )
        RETURN
            SELECTCOLUMNS(
                Dates,
                "ID_Expanded", 'Table A'[ID],
                "Month", FORMAT([MonthDate], "MMM-yy"),
                "Amount1", AmountPerMonth
            )
    )
RETURN
SUMMARIZE( T1,[ID_Expanded],[Month],[Amount1])
