Abstract
This paper deals with the problem of predicting the median of future sample from the one parameter exponential distribution. The density function of t he median is obtained when the sample size is even. Parametric prediction b ounds for the median of future sample for arbitrary size are obtained using the Bayesian approach. A numerical example is given to illustrate the proc edures.
