I think these are correct but cannot see how they're parsed....

Minor raised with trace of Louisiana accent - DRAWL

Inconsistent way to earn 100 yen - PATCHY

Minor is 'ward'
Raised means it's reversed 'draw'
Trace of Louisiana means the L.

as Drawl is a down clue, its ward = minor + L = accent, does that make sense?

I too had patchy but apart from the C & y cant pars it

way = path
to earn = to bring in.
100 = C.
patch + Y[en].

In the other one, I think the 'way' is path, then add C for 100 and y for yen.
