We estimate the quantity |f_eta'^(c)| which is associated with the charm content of eta' meson from the experimentally known ratio R=B(psi ->eta' gamma )/B(psi ->eta_c gamma). It is shown that due to the off-shellness of the c\bar c component of eta', which has been overlooked so far, f_eta'^(c) is further suppressed. Assuming that psi ->eta' gamma decay is dominated by psi ->eta_c transition, we obtain |f_eta'^(c)| = 2.4 MeV which could imply that the (b -> c\bar cs) mechanism does not play a major role in the B -> K eta' decay mode.
