The savings are under a mutual fund which uses compounding interest to get the future amount.
Solve the problem using the compounding interest formula
future value =principal amount [1 +(interest / number of times compounded per year)^years invested 
where:
principal  value = $5693
interest = 11.7%=0.117
number of times compounded = 1 
years= 8
future value = $13796.43
The amount that Jeremy could use as downpayment for the house after 8 years is $13796.43
