This all depends on the individual's goals. A reasonable base for protein intake (as has been regularly stated here) would be 1-1.5 grams per pound of LBM....this is often based on "bodyweight" (vs. LBM); although personally, for a newbie I don't see too much harm in using bodyweight as a 'base' initially.
As far as carbs and fat are concerned, there again, it depends on individual goals...i.e., the type of diet phase the person is in (e.g. cutting, bulking, or maintenance) It usually takes some trial and error to determine how one's physiology responds to varying amounts of each.

I'm sure Built has a write up on this somewhere around here. The older stickies are, well, a bit older, so the information therein might be a tad outdated....or at least more often disputed than they used to be.
