Solution
The statement that is NOT correct about bills is: "The drawer has a liability with a bank-accepted bill to pay face value to the acceptor bank."
In a bank-accepted bill, the drawer is the one who creates the bill and the acceptor (usually a bank) is the one who agrees to pay the face value at maturity. The liability of the drawer is to the holder of the bill, not to the acceptor bank. The acceptor bank's role is to guarantee the payment at maturity to the holder of the bill.
