Hello, try:
WITH your_table AS (SELECT 'Allowance' EARNINGS, 97.28 EARNINGS_VALUE FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Salary', 3404.80 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Allowance_1', 875.52 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Allowance_2', 194.56 FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'Allowance_3', 291.84 FROM DUAL)
-- end test data
SELECT Allowance, Salary, Allowance_1, Allowance_2, Allowance_3
FROM (
SELECT MAX(CASE EARNINGS WHEN 'Allowance' THEN EARNINGS_VALUE ELSE NULL END) Allowance,
   MAX(CASE EARNINGS WHEN 'Salary' THEN EARNINGS_VALUE ELSE NULL END) Salary,
   MAX(CASE EARNINGS WHEN 'Allowance_1' THEN EARNINGS_VALUE ELSE NULL END) Allowance_1,
   MAX(CASE EARNINGS WHEN 'Allowance_2' THEN EARNINGS_VALUE ELSE NULL END) Allowance_2,
   MAX(CASE EARNINGS WHEN 'Allowance_3' THEN EARNINGS_VALUE ELSE NULL END) Allowance_3
  FROM your_table
ALLOWANCE     SALARY ALLOWANCE_1 ALLOWANCE_2 ALLOWANCE_3
      97.28     3404.8      875.52      194.56      291.84
