How does additional debt impact Ev/equity value

hey guys, I hope someone can help me out here real quick. As mentioned in the title, how does taking on more dept changw valuation. I get that if I take on debt in theory my enterprise value doesmt change bc i subtract cash. What happens if I start spending that Cash fast (like they did with govt. Funds during corona)? That should increase my EV in the short term if I do not pay down debt right? What about my Equity value. If all things stay equal (Shareholder don't react to additional debt) shouldn't my equity value also stay the same? Some clarification would be awesome thanks!
