Rick, Team B (R) has the first option. They have the option of accepting or declining the penalty. Don't forget the first statement of the IW rule, "During a down, or
during a down in which the penalty for a foul is declined, if an inadvertent whistle occurs while..." Since the foul occurred during the down, if Team B (R) accepts the penalty, it's as if the IW never occurred.
