[AMBER] matching paramters of methane

I generated a topology file of methane. And in that file the values of
ACOEFF and BCOEFF are as follows:
%FLAG LENNARD_JONES_ACOEF

%FORMAT(5E16.8)

  1.04308023E+06 9.71708117E+04 7.51607703E+03
%FLAG LENNARD_JONES_BCOEF

%FORMAT(5E16.8)

  6.75612247E+02 1.26919150E+02 2.17257828E+01
Actually i want to know how these values came so, with parmed i got values
of LJ parameters which are as:

ATOM RES RESNAME NAME TYPE At.# LJ Radius LJ Depth Mass
 Charge GB Radius GB Screen
      1 1 unk C1 C3 6 1.9080 0.1094
12.0100 -0.3884 1.7000 0.7200
      2 1 unk H1 HC 1 1.4870 0.0157
 1.0080 0.0971 1.3000 0.8500
      3 1 unk H2 HC 1 1.4870 0.0157
 1.0080 0.0971 1.3000 0.8500
      4 1 unk H3 HC 1 1.4870 0.0157
 1.0080 0.0971 1.3000 0.8500
      5 1 unk H4 HC 1 1.4870 0.0157
 1.0080 0.0971 1.3000 0.8500

and I think the units of lj radius(radius) are *kcal/mol* and of
epsilon(depth) is in *angstrom.*
after taking this i calculated the values of ACOEFF and BCOEFF and they
are as

>From prmtop Aij 1.04308023E+06 9.71708117E+04 7.51607703E+03

manually Aij 1018.6330 94.7933
7.3399

>From prmtop Bij 6.75612247E+02 1.26919150E+02 2.17257828E+01

manually Bij 0.6789
3.9620 21.1128


units Aij manually (kcal/mol angstrom^12)

units Bij manually (kcal/mol angstrom^6)

I want to know why they are not matching and what units are in A and B
which came from AMBER topology.
