Abstract: This study aims to analyze The Influence of Taste and Price on Repurchase Decisions with
Consumer Satisfaction as an Intervening Variable. The method used in this study is a quantitative
method. The data collection technique used non-probability sampling and purposive sampling method
with a total sample of 96 people. Technical analysis using t test, R square test, adjusted R square
test, and multiple linear regression with test equipment using SPSS 26. From the analysis of research
data obtained the following results: Taste (X1) has a positive and significant effect on Consumer
Satisfaction (Y) with t count > t table (8,767 > 1,986 ) and contributed 45%. Price (X2) has a positive
and significant effect on Consumer Satisfaction (Y) with t count > t table ( 10.005 > 1.986 ) and
contributes 51.6%. Taste (X1) has a positive and significant effect on Repurchase Decision (Z) with t
count > t table (9,363 > 1,986) and contributes 48.4%. Price (X2) has a positive and significant effect
on Repurchase Decision (Z) with t count > t table (9,432 > 1,986 ) and contributes 48.6%. Consumer
Satisfaction (Y) has a positive and significant effect on Repurchase Decision (Z) with t count > t table (
13,848 > 1,986 ) and contributed 67.1%. From the points above, it can be concluded that the taste
and price have a positive effect on consumer satisfaction which then has a positive impact on the
decision to repurchase Yupi chili products. So that consumer satisfaction can be an intervening
variable between taste and price with repurchase decisions
INTRODUCTION
The development of the culinary business in Indonesia in recent years has given rise to
many new types of culinary businesses. One of them is the culinary business in the field of
chili processing into chili sauce and its derivatives. For culinary variations of chili sauce itself,
it is also growing quite rapidly, marked by the popularity of the processed chili brand in
bottles on a home industry scale from Surabaya, namely Sambal Bu Rudi. This stimulates
the community to open a similar business, namely packaged processed chili sauce. The
development of this chili business was also triggered by several restaurant brands owned by
artists. They sell sambal as a mainstay menu and other menus as an addition.
The large variety of brands, flavors and types of chili sauce itself has a pretty good
impact on the consumer community. Communities have many choices of flavors, types,
prices, packaging, and others in choosing their favorite chili sauce. This is also seen by one
of the sambal brands; processed on a household scale, namely Sambal Yupi.
Sambal Yupi has several types of chili products and additional menus. For the chili
products themselves, there are onion chili sauce, kecombrang chili sauce, and green chili
sauce. For other menus, there is kecombrang chili chicken, green chili chicken, kecombrang
chili dori fish, green chili ddori fish, and grilled chicken with yupi chili sauce. Each menu has
a different price and taste. Consumers who are customers also have their own references to
the Sambal Yupi menu. Not a few become loyal customers and repurchase yupi chili
products. According to Sumarwan (2002: 325) consumers who are satisfied with the product
consumed or used will repurchase the product..
Based on this, the authors want to examine how the variables price, taste, consumer
satisfaction, repurchase decisions are interrelated. So the purpose of this research is to find
out: 1). Does taste affect consumer satisfaction? 2). Does price affect consumer
satisfaction? 3). Does taste affect repurchase decisions? 4). Does the price affect the
repurchase decision? 5). Does customer satisfaction affect repurchase decisions?
According to Kotler & Keller (2016:483) price is the one element of the marketing mix
that produces revenue; the other elements produce costs. Price also communicates the
company’s intended value positioning of its product or brand. A well-designed and marketed
product can still command a price premium and reap big profits. But new economic realities
have caused many consumers to reevaluate what they are willing to pay for products and
services, and companies have had to carefully review their pricing strategies as a result.
According to Tjiptono (2015: 151) explained that price is something that becomes an
element of the mix, promotes income or becomes the income. Price is an element of
assimilation, entry or acquisition for an organization.
Satisfaction
According to Kotler & Keller (2016:153 satisfaction is a person’s feelings of pleasure or
disappointment that result from comparing a product or service’s perceived performance (or
outcome) to expectations.11 If the performance or experience falls short of expectations, the
customer is dissatisfied. If it matches expectations, the customer is satisfied. If it exceeds
expectations, the customer is highly satisfied or delighted.
According to Sumarwan (2002:325) Consumers who are satisfied with the product
consumed or used will repurchase the product. Continuous repeat purchases will show
consumer loyalty to the brand. This is what is known as brand loyalty, something that is
highly expected by manufacturers. One of the goals of marketing communications is to
create brand loyalty.
According to (Hardiyatih, 2010), customer satisfaction is a response to the behavior
shown by customers by comparing perceived performance or results with expectations. If the
perceived results are below expectations, the customer will be disappointed, dissatisfied or
even dissatisfied. However, if it is in accordance with expectations, the customer will be
satisfied and if the performance exceeds expectations, the customer will be very satisfied.
Customer satisfaction is a feeling or emotional assessment of the customer for the use of a
product or service where their expectations and needs are met, (Sugianto & Sugiharto,
2013)
Buying Decision Process
The consumer typically passes through five stages: problem recognition, information
search, evaluation of alternatives, purchase decision, and postpurchase behavior. Clearly,
the buying process starts long before the actual purchase and has consequences long
afterward. Consumers don’t always pass through all five stages—they may skip or reverse
some. When you buy your regular brand of toothpaste, you go directly from the need to the
purchase decision, skipping information search and evaluation (Kotler & Keller, 2016:195).
Meanwhile, according to (Tjiptono, 2016) purchasing decisions are part of consumer
behavior. Consumer behavior is an action that is directly related to the acquisition and
identification of products and services, including the decision-making process before and
after the action.
Relations Between Variables
1. The influence of taste on consumer satisfaction
According to Drummond & Brefere (2010) flavor is an attribute of a food that includes its
taste, smell, feel in the mouth, texture, temperature, and even the sounds made when it is
chewed. Flavor is a com- bination of all five senses: taste, smell, touch, sight, and sound.
Based on the results of research conducted by Muzdalifah (2019) states that taste has a
positive and significant effect on consumer satisfaction. Thus the hypothesis in this study is:
"Taste has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction"
2. The influence of price on consumer satisfaction
According to Kotler & Keller (2016:483) price is the one element of the marketing mix
that produces revenue; the other elements produce costs. Price also communicates the
company’s intended value positioning of its product or brand. A well-designed and marketed
product can still command a price premium and reap big profits. Based on the results of
research conducted by Mirza (2015) stated that price has a positive and significant effect on
consumer satisfaction. Thus the hypothesis in this study is:
"Price has a positive and significant effect on consumer satisfaction”
3. The influence of price on repurchase decisions
According to Kotler & Keller (2016:483) price is the one element of the marketing mix
that produces revenue; the other elements produce costs. Price also communicates the
company’s intended value positioning of its product or brand. A well-designed and marketed
product can still command a price premium and reap big profits. Based on the results of
research conducted by Lydia (2018) states that price has a positive and significant effect on
repurchasing decisions. Thus the hypothesis in this study is:
"Price has a positive and significant effect on repurchasing decisions”
4. The influence of taste on repurchase decisions
According to Drummond & Brefere (2010) flavor is an attribute of a food that includes its
taste, smell, feel in the mouth, texture, temperature, and even the sounds made when it is
chewed. Flavor is a com- bination of all five senses: taste, smell, touch, sight, and sound.
Based on the results of research conducted by Sugeng (2016) stated that taste has a
positive and significant effect on consumer satisfaction. Thus the hypothesis in this study is:
"Taste has a positive and significant effect on repurchasing decisions”
5. The influence of consumer satisfaction on repurchasing decisions
According to Kotler & Keller (2016:153 satisfaction is a person’s feelings of pleasure or
disappointment that result from comparing a product or service’s perceived performance (or
outcome) to expectations.11 If the performance or experience falls short of expectations, the
customer is dissatisfied. If it matches expectations, the customer is satisfied. If it exceeds
expectations, the customer is highly satisfied or delighted. Based on the results of research
conducted by Febriansyah & Gerry (2021) stated that consumer satisfaction has a positive
and significant effect on repurchasing decisions. Thus the hypothesis in this study is:
"Customer satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on repurchasing decisions"
METHODS
The method used in this study is a quantitative method. The object of this research is
Sambal Yupi. Meanwhile, the subjects used were consumers who had purchased more than
one Sambal Yupi product. The type of data in this study uses primary data with a sample of
96 respondents who were taken using a non-probability sampling technique using a
purposive sampling method. Data collection techniques were carried out by survey method
by giving questionnaires containing statements related to the research topic to respondents
and measured using a Likert Scale. Technical analysis using t test, R square test, adjusted
R square test, and multiple linear regression with test equipment using SPSS 26.

The constant value obtained is 2.856, which means that if the taste (X1) and price (X2)
are omitted or have a value of 0 (zero), then consumer satisfaction (Y) is worth 2.856. The
regression coefficient of the Taste variable (X1) is 0.433, which means that if the Taste
variable (X1) increases by 1 level, consumer satisfaction will increase by 0.433. The
regression coefficient of the price variable (X2) is 0.424, which means that if the price
variable (X2) increases by 1 level, consumer satisfaction will increase by 0.424.
The value of the determinant test of the Summary Model produces an Adjusted R
Square value of 0.600, this shows that 60% of the Taste (X1) and Price (X2) variables have
a simultaneous influence on the Consumer Satisfaction variable (Y) and the remaining 40%
have an effect on the factor others not examined in this study.

CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of research analysis and discussion, it can be concluded several
things as follows:
1. Taste (X1) has a positive and significant effect on Consumer Satisfaction (Y) with t
count > t table (8,767 > 1,986) and contributes 45%.
2. Price (X2) has a positive and significant effect on Consumer Satisfaction (Y) with t
count > t table ( 10.005 > 1.986 ) and contributes 51.6%.
3. Taste (X1) has a positive and significant effect on Repurchase Decision (Z) with t
count > t table (9,363 > 1,986) and contributes 48.4%.
4. Price (X2) has a positive and significant effect on Repurchase Decision (Z) with t
count > t table (9,432 > 1,986) and contributes 48.6%.
5. Consumer Satisfaction (Y) has a positive and significant effect on Repurchase
Decisions (Z) with t count > t table (13.848 > 1.986) and contributes 67.1%.
From the points above, it can be concluded that Taste and Price have a positive effect
on Consumer Satisfaction which then has a positive impact on Repurchasing Decisions for
Yupi chili products. So that consumer satisfaction can be an intervening variable between
taste and price with repurchasing decisions. Therefore, the purpose of this research has
been achieved.
