Top of the bill, yours truly (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acme

'top' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'bill yours truly' is the wordplay.
'bill' becomes 'ac' (short for account).
'yours truly' becomes 'me' (the person who set this crossword).
'ac'+'me'='ACME'

'of the' is the link.

(Other definitions for acme that I've seen before include "Highest point of excellence or achievement" , "Summit of achievement" , "Highest level or degree attainable" , "Culminating point" , "Peak of perfection" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
