It would seem whatever penalty is enforced would INCLUDE whatever the referee decided it should, or should not include.

But you seem to imply the extension of a period to be in itself a penalty, or a part of a penalty. I never thought of extension of a period as part of a penalty, especially when in some cases of the type described it's not clear which side is benefited by it, and, in the case of the ending of an even-numbered period, it would seem that in USAn rules it could only benefit the offending team.
