My question is does B have the option on the one untimed down of tacking on 5 yards to the subsequent dead ball spot or do can they only take 5 from the PS because it's the last play of the half?

CANADIAN RULING:
The penalty for not enough men on the line of scrimmage is 5 yards applied only at the line of scrimmage. If A had only as many as 11 players on the field, then the flag will be waived.
If B declines the foul, the half is over. If they accept, it is A 4D/10 @ A-5.
So, the Canadian answer is "no".
