The statement "A rational will is one which acts according to the categorical imperative."
{ 1 } - is synthetic a priori because the concept of the predicate is not contained in the concept of the subject, but is also gained independent of sense experience.
{ 2 } - Does not depend on the existence of freedom to be true.
{ 3 } - is not synthetic because the concept of the predicate is found in the concept of the subject.
{ 4 } - is a posteriori because the predicate is obtained through sense experience.
{ 5 } - is analytic because the concept "one which acts according to the categorical imperative" is found in the concept of "rational will."

It does depend on the existence of freedom, which is why freedom is a postulate of the moral law, or the condition for the possiblity of the moral law..
