For the second floor of a building (3000 ft^2) with 50 staff members, how many routers and switches would I need? I was thinking 5 routers and 20 switches. This isn't actually going to happen, I just want to know how to determine these things.

Is this for just computers? Computers and phones? Are they all the same company? One comp and phone per employee? What kind of router are you planning to use? How many ports does it have? What kind of switch do you plan to use? How many ports does it have? What kind of layout is the floor? Open? Semi open with surrounding offices? All offices with a conference room? How are you planning to lay wiring? Do they need wifi?
One router.

I can just imagine at OP's office a chest level high stack of switches in the janitors closet with cat5 just spewing out from underneath the door and going across walkways plugged into peoples computers.

One good router in the whole building, enough switches to cover all people and then some, one access point (ruckus 710 is pretty good)
