Are these calulations correct?

My brother has been taking a lot of nutrition courses since his major is Exercise Science and a lot of his information he has been getting from his teachers and books contradict a lot of what I've learned from these forums and from many bodybuilding coaches. One main thing we have been aruging about is how much protein one needs in their daily diet, and their calories. His teacher who has a PHd put together a spreadsheet that calculates total caloric needs, bmr, carbs, protein, fat, etc. Here are some of the numbers it is showing for me, a 200lb guy.

3484.845455 <---Total Caloric Needs
2049.909091 <---Basal Metabolic Rate
90.90909091 <---Weight in Kilograms
479.16625 <---# of Grams of Carbohydrate
47.916625 <---# of Grams of Refined Simple Sugar
145.4545455 <---# of Grams of Protein
96.80126263 <---# of Grams of Fat
29.04037879 <---# of Grams of Saturated Fat
2962.118636 <---Caloric Needs for Weight Loss
3659.087727 <---Caloric Needs for Weight Gain

Let me know if these look right, one thing I already disagree with is the protein 145g??? One thing my brother tells me is I eat too much protein (1.5 per pound, I weigh 200) according to his teacher and his books. I know I am right, and he is wrong can I just get some verification from someone who knows their stuff?

number of refined simple sugars? that chart is a joke, you don't need refined anything, and that chart seems to be based off the "recomended daily values", they are no good for a bodybuilder, just keep doing what your doing

im a nutritional science major and a lot of the nutritionists for the sports teams recommend 1.1-1.5 grams per pound at my university

From all the books and articles I have read, I have come to the conclusion that nobody is right and most things are based on opinion.

I pretty much agree with you on that. Everyones body is different, it depends how your body reacts to different types of diets. Right now I'm trying out my first low-carb diet to cut for the summer, we'll see how that works out.
