By the word suspended,I take that the ring (hoop) is put on a peg on a wall.
Using the perpendicular axis theorem,
MI(peg) = MI(center of hoop) + (Mass of hoop)x(radius)²
MR² + MR² = 2MR²
Using the perpendicular axis theorem,
MI(peg) = MI(center of hoop) + (Mass of hoop)x(radius)²
MR² + MR² = 2MR²

Moment of Inertia of Hoop about the peg is 2M.
Explanation:
A hoop is suspended on a peg in a wall .
A hoop is considered equivalent to a standard ring.
Mass Moment of Inertia of a ring about its center of mass is equal to
where M is mass of ring and R is radius of ring.
The hoop is suspended on a peg in a wall about a point on the circumference of ring.
Parallel Axis Theorem
Moment of Inertia about a point "a" distance away from center of mass is equal to the sum of moment of inertia about COM and product of mass and square of the distance.
a = R for this situation;
