Just curious about my earlier question about whether A can accept the penalty against B during a successful touchdown play and have a choice of enforcement: on the try or on the ensuring free-kick. Thanks!

teams never receive the choice on when to accept the penalty, only whether to accept it or not.
To answer the question, NFHS penalty enforcement is about as straightforward as it gets. Under 2002 rules a foul by B was automatically declined. Under the 2003 rule, the penalty will be enforced from the succeeding spot just like all other penalties.

Therefore, the point after is the succeeding spot.
