It also exerts a force on the earth if you consider gravity. You cannot assume that the force of the hand is transmitted to Box B. Box A exerts a force on box B, but it is NOT NECESSARILY the same magnitude as the force of the hand on A. | |

Box A does not create forces, it only transfers existing forces. (objects undergoing uniform motion tend to stay in uniform motion) | |
