Answer: 2 Apple Pies.

Explanation:

As you may well know, the OPPORTUNITY COST of doing something is the gain you would have gotten if you did an alternative.

In this scenario therefore we will be simply answering that Monica would have done if she wasn't making 1 loaf of bread.

Monica takes 2 hours to bake a loaf of bread and 1 hour to bake a pie.

So what would happen if Monica had 2 hours free because she didn't make a loaf of bread?

If it takes just an hour to make an apple pie, Monica now has 2 spare hours so she will be able to make 2 Pies.

Therefore Monica's opportunity cost of making a loaf of bread is 2 Pies.
