Let $G$ be a finite group and let $A\left( G \right)$ denote the Burnside ring of $G$. Then an inverse limit $L\left( G \right)$ of the groups $A\left( H \right)$ for proper subgroups $H$ of $G$ and a homomorphism res from $A\left( G \right)$ to $L\left( G \right)$ are obtained in a natural way. Let $Q\left( G \right)$ denote the cokernel of res. For a prime $p$, let $N\left( p \right)$ be the minimal normal subgroup of $G$ such that the order of ${G}/{N}\;\left( p \right)$ is a power of $p$, possibly 1. In this paper we prove that $Q\left( G \right)$ is isomorphic to the cartesian product of the groups $Q\left( {G}/{N\left( p \right)}\; \right)$, where $p$ ranges over the primes dividing the order of $G$.
